«What We Believe but Cannot Prove» is John Brockman's anthology of essays published by Harper Perennial in paperback (272 pages, in English).
John Brockman asked more than a hundred scientists and thinkers the question: what do you believe to be true even though you cannot prove it? This volume brings together their answers in micro-essays that address science, consciousness, evolution, the cosmos and religion, and reveal how great theories are also born from bold assumptions and unverified intuitions.
It belongs to the Edge Question series and includes an introduction by Ian McEwan.
For readers interested in science, philosophy and the unproven intuitions of great thinkers; the short texts allow for serial reading.
John Brockman is an American literary agent and author specializing in scientific literature. He established the Edge Foundation, an online magazine exploring scientific and intellectual ideas. Due to his close connections with Jeffrey Epstein, he has been dubbed Epstein's "intellectual enabler".
