Is science getting at the truth? Through a combination of historical investigation and philosophical-sociological analysis, Identifying Future-Proof Science defends science against this potentially dangerous scepticism. The sceptics - those who spread doubt about science - often employ a simple argument: scientists were 'sure' in the past, and then they ended up being wrong.
How do we identify future-proof claims? Indeed, we can confidently identify many scientific claims that are future-proof: they will last forever, so long as science continues. This appears to be a new question for science scholars, and not an unimportant one.
Peter Vickers argues that the best way to identify future-proof science is to avoid any attempt to analyse the relevant first-order scientific evidence, instead focusing purely on second-order evidence. Specifically, a scientific claim is future-proof
