Gerade wiederentdeckt: Ben Goldacres Liebeserkärung an Wissenschaft in seinem “Bad Science”-Manifesto, dem ersten Text seiner Bad Science-Kolumne für den Guardian vom 3. April 2003:
„Science, you see, is the optimum belief system: because we have the error bar, the greatest invention of mankind, a pictorial representation of the glorious undogmatic uncertainty in our results, which science is happy to confront and work with. Show me a politician’s speech, or a religious text, or a news article, with an error bar next to it?“
Mag ich sehr.
