Here we present the first video in a long series where you will learn all the details of how science works, how flawed we humans are and how important critical thinking and skepticism are for our collective and individual well-being.
I call this content a series because it's on KZfaq, if I were at university I would call it a course, because essentially that's what you'll get here: a course on scientific thinking.
Here you will have access to the toolbox necessary to develop your critical, rational, logical and skeptical thinking, so that you can think like a scientist. In fact, this toolbox was what Carl Sagan called a "lie detection kit."
Throughout this series I will present here all the tools in this kit, which are content that will add a lot of value to your intellect, content capable of improving your way of thinking, your reasoning, your logic and your rationality. If this is relevant to your personal development, subscribe to the channel and activate your bell to never miss any of our videos.
