Ask HN: Book Recommendations on Scientific Thinking

3 pointsaalhourdiscuss
On HN

What books would you recommend on the Scientific Method, Epistemology and scientific thinking in general?

Books like this that I liked:

- The Selfish Gene

- Rationality: From AI to Zombies

- The Scout Mindset

- Asking the Right Questions (Critical Thinking)

I've read "Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman" already and could barely finish it. I respect that Feynman is a great scientist but he came across too full of himself in the book.

I'm planning on reading "The Beginning of Infinity" sometime this year and I am collecting more recommendations.

EDIT: Formatting.
