Originally Published 1 year ago — by Big Think
The book "The Blind Spot: Why Science Cannot Ignore Human Experience" argues that science has overlooked the essential role of human experience, leading to a crisis of meaning. It highlights the paradox of science portraying humans as insignificant in the universe while also being central to understanding reality. The blind spot in science is the neglect of direct bodily experience, which is essential for observation and understanding. The disconnect between science and human experience has led to challenges in comprehending matter, time, life, and the mind. The book calls for a reevaluation of how science incorporates human experience to avoid heading deeper into peril and confusion.
