As a person who appreciates science so much, and is fascinated by it, I find that I myself don't know what is science exactly.
Is science facts set on stone? what's the difference between a theory or a law for example, I just do Science without knowing how we reached this like outside of class and doing equations and problems, I don't really know science.
sorry about my wording I don't really know how to put the book I'm asking for in exact words
