Exploració, joc i reflexió. Assaigs sobre ciència is a collection of essays that reflect on science in general, from research to teaching, and from the lighter aspects of scientific investigation to those related to politics, society, and ethical beliefs. The author, Joan-Domènec Ros, explores the role of science in the 21st century, covering topics ranging from 'hard' science and marine biology to the role of women in laboratories and the history of influential scientists. The book presents science as a 'second culture' alongside the humanities, offering a critical look at both the scientific community and those who disregard scientific rigor. The title, borrowed from a phrase by Ramon Margalef, describes the author's view of science: an endeavor that demands the effort of exploration and reflection, while also allowing for the immense joy of discovery.
