Science, Belief, Intuition: Reflections of a Physician (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781452549620)

While building a strong program in Critical Care on foundations of excellence and compassion, Dr. Wood used two methods of inquiry and knowing:

- Science looked outward with objective, accurate, reproducible measurements to falsify erroneous explanations.

- Belief looked inward for purpose and meaning, analyzing personal subjective issues, like God, which cannot be falsified for lack of a Godometer.

- But when verified by the still small voice or intuition, belief creates a spiritual source of knowing akin to the scientific method.

- Recent books like War of the Worldviews assume science and spirituality are antagonistic; debating which is better is like bringing a knife to a gunfight, for both sides are vulnerable to critique.

Science, Belief, Intuition shows how the strengths of one fill the gaps of the other, providing more comprehensive understanding together than either alone.
