About the Book
This engaging collection brings together twelve essays exploring science and its dynamic interaction with various dimensions of human life. Palash Baran Pal examines themes such as science and superstition, science and social values, the scope and limits of scientific inquiry, science and imagination, science and religion, and even science fiction.

The essays reflect on how scientific thinking shapes culture and how cultural contexts, in turn, influence scientific understanding. By moving beyond purely technical discussions, the book situates science within ethical, philosophical, and social frameworks.

Spanning 136 pages, this paperback offers a thoughtful and accessible exploration of science as both a method of inquiry and a cultural force.
