The Limits of Science by P. G. Medawar

A classic discussion by a scientist with impeccable credentials. Debunks the myth of the "scientific method" as the way science is done.

He makes a case for the limits of science and that at times true inferences have come from false premises.

Science cannot answer questions about origins and meaning of existence.

A good book to go back to from time to time.
