Fragile ScienceIn the search for knowledge, based on experiment that can be logically and rationally explained, we make generalizations about how the world works. Science is often perceived as the truth. But history has shown us that our conclusions again and again have to be corrected.
The exibition should show science as a fragile truth and not tell the story as an absolute. No glossy images with simplified dia-grams of how things work, but rather snapshots of our current perceptions.
History of medicine from medieval beliefs of four humorism and astrology to our understanding of the bodys function
