Description

Overview

We trust that the sun will rise tomorrow and that gravity will hold us today. We call this “science.” But is it truly objective fact, or merely a human habit? “Shattered Certainties” takes you to the edge of the intellectual abyss, where 18th-century skepticism meets modern cognitive struggle.

Author Jinseong Min dissects the “Fatal Flaw” of induction—the unprovable assumption that the future will always mirror the past. This book is a masterclass in the philosophy of science, exploring how we navigate a world that is fundamentally uncertain through the “algorithms of belief” we’ve constructed to survive.

Key Philosophical Pillars

• The Time Bomb of Induction: A rigorous look at David Hume’s critique. Why ten thousand successful experiments do not guarantee the success of the ten-thousand-and-first.

• Science as a Secular Faith: An exploration of how the “objective” fortress of science is actually built on unprovable premises and human customs.

• The Algorithm of Belief: How our minds create “unseen threads” to connect disparate events into a meaningful—but potentially illusory—narrative.

• He Who Sees the Truth Collapses: A haunting analysis of genius and suffering, featuring the lives of figures like Hugh Everett and Wolfgang Pauli. Why seeking the absolute “Truth” often leads to social and personal isolation.

• Language as the Final Bridge: The realization that pain and collapse, when spoken and translated into language, become something that can be endured.
