Questioning Authority: Critical Thinking - Essential to Real Science

2 years ago

Science is usually defined by reference to the acquisition of knowledge about the world. This means science must be an ongoing process.

Yet we are often given the impression that in many fields, the science is settled; that the experts have found the answers to their enquiries; and that these answers cannot be questioned by anyone outside that field, because they do not understand the ‘science’ involved.

But this is dogma, not science.

Unfortunately, most fields of scientific enquiry function by reference to dogma rather than true science, because critical thinking and the ability to question authority are not permitted - but authority does not necessarily represent truth.

A saying attributed to Mahatma Gandhi is:
An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.

In today’s conversation, Dawn Lester speaks with Mike Donio, a scientist with 20 years experience in the field, 15 of which have been within the biotech and pharmaceutical industry, to discuss why it is so important to retain critical thinking, an open mind, and a willingness to question authority, especially within the field of science.
