""Trumble [is] a gentler version of Richard Dawkins... In lieu of what he perceives to be fanciful explanations of phenomena once inexplicable but now within the "purview" of scientific understanding, Trumble offers this well-articulated, fact-based worldview, all in clear, accessible language."-Publishers Weekly, "Trumble [is] a gentler version of Richard Dawkins...

Synopsis
How science can convey a profound sense of wonder, connectedness, and optimism about the human condition. Most people appreciate science on an obvious level. Modern medicine, electric lighting, rapid transportation, and long-distance communication are among the many benefits of science that have made life today healthier and more comfortable than people in earlier eras could have imagined. This book is about a deeper benefit of science, one that, while less obvious, may prove to be far more important in the long run- namely, the ability to look beyond our preconceptions and see the world and ourselves in a truer light. The author makes a compelling case that now more than ever the public at large needs to appreciate the critical-thinking tools that science has to offer and be educated in basic science literacy. Trumble emphasizes that the methods and facts of science are accessible to everyone, and that, contrary to popular belief, understanding science does not require extraordinary intelligence. He also notes that scientific rationality and critical thinking are not only good for our physical well-being but also are fully in sync with our highest moral codes.

- _***8 (70)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufExcellent packaging: the books were wrapped in two layers of thin white paper and placed inside a bubble wrap courier bag. Very fast overseas shipping: the order date was 17/10, and the parcel arrived on the 31st. Honest photos and descriptions. Recommended seller. 5 stars !
- l***u (12)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufOverall buying from here was a fantastic experience! The book arrived at my door in two days, during a flash flood advisory. It was packaged in a grey plastic mailer, secured with extra tape so that the item stayed nice and dry. The book itself is exactly as stated: a fresh new copy. No witting or highlighting, no library stickers. Just a clean, intact copy. This was much cheaper than if had I bought from a major bookstore, so all in all I’m very pleased with my purchase here! Would recommend.
