Last year I offered a program about Albert Einstein. We considered "the human-being, the man" not just his awesome discoveries and way on thinking about complex matters. We noted that he considered imagination and creativity and imagination were important processes and skills in his ability to think differently. These were personal aspects in his character that made him who he was. 

My long-time friend, Dr. Joseph Jordania, wrote the book titled "The human story behind scientific discovery". I warmly recommend it. In fact, I think it should be compulsory reading for everyone. 

There is a Kindle edition now available for AU $5.00 that I wish to bring to your attention. It brilliantly builds upon what we explored a little in my Community Online Course "Thinking about Einstein" last year.

You will be awe-struck at the insights. The topics fundamentally affect the everyday lives of thousands of scholars, both professionally and non-professionally, and have a profound influence on the advancement of science. A fresh idea or insight on almost every page.

What scholars say about Joseph's book:

"The Human Story Behind Scientific Discovery will be seen as one of the most important books of our time. It's far-reaching, fascinating, and flawlessly truthful, with an unexpected message that most readers will experience a tsunami of realization mixed with shock. It will change some of us and redirect others, and once you've read it, it will stay with you for life. Its truths cannot be ignored and are impossible to forget." Elizabeth Marshall Thomas, author of The Hidden Life of Dogs and The Hidden Life of Life

"When was the last time you read a book with a fresh idea or insight on almost every page? Joseph Jordania's questioning and creative mind is well suited to describing the contributions made by passionate developers of new knowledge who, in their time, were considered outsiders or mavericks, if they were considered at all. Jordan's unorthodox observations will move the reader to think Hmm, That makes sense!" Ellen Dissanayake, Author, What Is Art For? and Homo Aesthetics

"A dazzling, inspirational tour de force. Joseph Jordania exceeds his goal of presenting the human dynamics of scientific discovery sketched by Popper, Kuhn, and Feyerabend. Not content to identify the malignant, pervasive barriers to advancing science, he provides an insightful, comprehensive guide to overcoming institutionalized resistance that will put heart into aspiring scholars, scientists, and seekers and challenge the gatekeepers and systems that hold back innovation." Jenny Wade, author of Changes of Mind:, A Holonomic Theory of the Evolution of Consciousness and Transcendent Sex, When Lovemaking Opens the Veil.
