"[Scientific thinking's] strength lies not in the certainties it reaches but in a radical awareness of the vastness of our ignorance. This awareness allows us to keep questioning our own knowledge, and thus, to continue learning." - Carlo Rovelli, Anaximander: And the Birth of Science
I actually prefer the title the book was originally released with (that edition is now out of print): The First Scientist: Anaximander and his Legacy.
