About This Novel
"A Minimalist History of Science: 2,500 Years of Human Exploration of the World and Self" is a new overview of 2,500 years of human exploration of the world and self. Where do we come from? What is the world made of? What else is beyond the earth? We look up at the stars and relentlessly explore, discover, question, and unravel a series of mysteries about nature and ourselves. We originate from nature, but we transcend nature. On this dangerous planet, compared to other species, human beings can develop and grow in an orderly manner, and the most important thing is because we have mastered the power of science. But to truly understand science, we must understand its past. "Minimalist History of Science" is also a "history of science that is very different from tradition." From the early scientific exploration of mankind to the proposal of the Big Bang theory in the 20th century, from the origin of science in the ancient Greek era to the birth of modern science in the 16th and 17th centuries, from the rise of earth science, the prosperity of life science to the exploration of the universe... This book returns to those scientific classics that changed the way we view the world, the universe and ourselves, and fascinatingly tells the great process of the change of scientific concepts and the development of ideas. From Hippocrates, Plato and Aristotle to Einstein, Schrödinger and Dawkins, these great minds who expanded the boundaries of human knowledge not only changed the trajectory of scientific development, but also contributed to revolutions in human vision and ways of thinking. This book reminds us that science is not an absolutely reliable guide to the truth, but our understanding of the world, a way of understanding the world, and a purely human pursuit. The greatest value of human beings is the never-ending exploration of the unknown world. The story of science is one of the most interesting stories in human history. Everyone who has ever been curious about the world should read this book to understand this extraordinary history.
