Why Chosen

Experiments do more than generate results; they transform the way we imagine knowledge itself. They challenged me to think differently - to see truth not as what seems persuasive, but as what can be tested and demonstrated. This book shows that experiments are not just technical tools but a way of thinking: a discipline that sharpens questions, tests assumptions, and reshapes how experimenters approach the world.
