The
Ten Assumptions of Science
Toward
a New Scientific Worldview
Glenn
Borchardt, Ph.D.
The
Ten Assumptions of Science presents the logically coherent set
of assumptions destined to define 21st century scientific
philosophy. Glenn Borchardt first explains why assumptions and not
absolutes are necessary for scientific thinking. By exploring the
opposition between deterministic and indeterministic views, he
clearly shows how critical choices among underlying assumptions
either clarify or muddle scientific analysis.
He shows how customary mixtures of deterministic and indeterministic
assumptions are responsible for the current confusion in modern
physics. According to Dr. Borchardt, only rare physicists and
philosophers have an inkling of the nature of time, space, energy,
and matter. The need for reassessing our fundamental assumptions is
indicated by the present sorry state of cosmology. Otherwise
intelligent scientists promulgate the idea that the universe
expanded from a tiny "singularity" smaller than the period
at the end of this sentence. At the very least, adherence to
Borchardt’s assumptions will contribute to the rejection of the
"Big Bang Theory," which has surpassed the flat Earth
theory as the greatest embarrassment to serious thinkers everywhere.
Although the book makes an excellent supplement to college
courses in scientific philosophy, it is an astounding eye-opener for
the educated reader with an interest in science and philosophy.

“I was very impressed that you had come to so many correct conclusions
from a generalist's logical analysis of science.”
