seem right, something that seems as if it hasn’t been
sufficiently tested, something that isn’t rigorously explained,
then I fully expect you to call me out on it. Test it for
yourself. Make your own hypotheses and design your own
experiments. Heck, just e-mail me and tell me where you
think I went wrong. I’ll appreciate it. Honestly.
The first rule of science is that while we can always get
closer to the truth, there is never a final answer. There are
new discoveries made and experiments performed every
day that can turn conventional wisdom on its head. If five
years from now somebody hasn’t discovered that at least
one fact in this book is glaringly wrong, it means that people
aren’t thinking critically enough.
But some of you might be wondering now, what exactly
is science? It’s a really good question, and a topic that’s
often misunderstood. Let’s talk about it a bit.
