The Science Delusion

Biologist Rupert Sheldrake argues that science has hardened into a set of unexamined assumptions, from the idea that nature is purely mechanical to the belief that minds are nothing but brains. Taking each in turn, he reframes them as questions rather than settled facts and presses for a more open scientific method. The book is contrarian and disputed within mainstream science, and Zeeshan Ali flags it as a good but fairly advanced read.
