Are there any scientific books that explain why science works?
(February 8, 2017 at 6:18 pm)Alex K Wrote: The closest to that I've read is Dan Dennett's "Breaking the Spell"

Dennett believes that consciousness is an illusion. He also advocates the self-defeating notion that reason cannot be trusted. Anyone that can believe such absurdities cannot be taken seriously; although to his credit he has followed materialist philosophy to its logical extreme.
