Deconstruction of science

[Starlight321]

Hey there, I've deconstructed religion, mathematics and language mostly via youtube channels like "religionforbreakfast", "let's talk religion" and some articles on the internet and wikipedia. 

I'm now looking for new sources to deconstruct science and a little bit more  mathematics. 

Has anyone some good sources to do that? I've already read most of "the structure of scientific revolution".  Maybe there are some youtube channels which explain how science and mathematics was done over the course of the centuries.

Thx in advance!

You´ve propably seen "the myth of science" series by Leo Gura? Charles Tart is also good at pointing the limitations of science being a scientist himself.

If you haven't read it already and are up for a lengthy and very in depth read, Ken Wilber's works contextualize science in a very insightful and penetrating way. In particular, I'd recommend 'Eye To Eye : The Quest For A New Paradigm' and 'Sex, Ecology, Spirituality'.

Part of why I found those works useful is that he doesn't just deconstruct science, but he also takes the necessary next step of reconstructing science and integrating it into a holistic meta-epistomology which also includes philosophy and spirituality.

Additionally, I'd also highly recommend 'The Embodied Mind : Cognitive Science and Human Experience ' by Varella, Thompson, and Roach for the way it reconstructs (specifically cognitive science) beyond a materialist framework (while of course deconstructing scientism). If you're familiar with the work of John Verveake, this book offers an in depth exploration of many of the same topics and paradigms that he discusses.

'Science Ideated' by Bernardo Kastrup is also a good read, though it's also tied to an objective idealism framework (which you may or may not find valid - for myself I find his insights useful, even if I find myself questioning 'grand metaphysical frameworks')
