Book Review – Programming the Universe: Can Quantum Computers Simulate and Predict Everything in the Universe?

B

Quantum mechanics has been debated and developed over the course of its 100-year history, and is now focused on engineering applications with the development of quantum computers.

Book Review – Intelligent Design: The Bridge Between Science & Theology (Evolution vs. Creationism)

B

I read William A. Dembski’s book Intelligent Design.

D

Thomas Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions argues that scientific knowledge is not simply accumulated, but revolutionized through paradigm shifts.

K

Criticize Kuhn’s paradigm theory and explain the continuity and interdependence of scientific knowledge. Dr. Perelman’s solution of the Poincaré conjecture highlights the close connection between scientific knowledge.   In The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, Kuhn proposes that scientific theories are not continuous and do not develop gradually, and that their direction is...

Is Richard Dawkins right about altruistic behavior?

I

Richard Dawkins claims that altruistic behavior is for the benefit of our genes, but I believe that humans help others out of the goodness of their hearts.

It can take many forms, such as sharing delicious food when we find it, or collecting money to send to...
