Ultra-compressed liberal arts science for practical useWith so much to see these days, why should we learn about science? This introductory science book is for those familiar with Shakespeare's four great tragedies but unfamiliar with Newton's three laws of motion.
It guides readers into the world of science by providing a glimpse into scientific moments that have influenced human development in four fields: economics, politics, philosophy, and medicine.

“As you explore the liberal arts science courses that are arranged in order,
You will soon feel intellectually satisfied!”_Orbit
The story of science that changed humanity seems like a movie!
The world's shortest and easiest ultra-compressed history of science
The usefulness of science has always existed, both in the past and present, but it has been ignored because it is not necessary to know about science since it is not a science subject.
Still, I want to study science to become a cultured person, but the barrier to entry is not easy.
Even just getting started requires a firm resolve. Why can't I just pretend I don't know? Why should I, someone who doesn't even know the first word in science, and doesn't need to go back to college, really learn science?
“Science is something that becomes more interesting the more you look into it.” Author Daewoong Bae, a “science nerd” who learns about life from science and the humanities, says that “no one living in this world can be free from science,” and asserts that science is essential for survival and therefore something everyone must know.
As the author says, people feel burdened by science as a liberal art, so they know Shakespeare's four major tragedies but do not know Newton's three laws of motion.
Although it is well known that Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 is "Fate," it is not so well known that Einstein's E=mc2 is the mass-energy equivalence principle.
The reason the history of science feels difficult is because the various disciplines are interconnected like a chain of arrows, making it difficult to grasp the whole picture at once.
The author has compressed the 'minimum' scientific knowledge into this book so that you can understand it in one go, so that studying science is no longer scary.
"Minimum Science Study," which unravels the complexly intertwined history of science as an entertaining history, as if watching a movie, tells the story of how science has transformed human life, and concisely introduces the relationship between science and the key keywords "economy," "politics," "philosophy," and "medicine."
You can take a look at scientific moments that have had a profound impact on humanity at a glance, such as the accidental discovery of X-rays during an ultraviolet ray emission experiment, the discovery of the antibiotic penicillin after accidentally not properly closing a culture dish, and the story of how a vaccine virus was created thanks to cows.
We invite you, a liberal arts student who must survive in this world and a science idiot, to the wondrous world of science!

Publisher's Review
Just reading one science episode a day will improve your science skills!
A minimal introduction to science that you can't help but recommend once you've read it.
Science is difficult and complex.
This is only natural, as even smart people study knowledge while pulling out their hair.
This is because the subject of science is wide-ranging, from big science, which traces the origins of the universe, to nanotechnology, which observes the world at a scale of one billionth of a meter.
That is why it is nearly impossible to fully understand science.
Ultimately, even when studying science, 'choice' is necessary.
The author, a science nerd, majored in sociology, but after accidentally working at a science and technology research institute, his eyes were opened to science and he began studying science in earnest.
So how should we study? Should we just solve equations and learn theories like we did in school? The author found the answer in history.
- Why did scientists' wrong predictions lead to the climate crisis?
- Why is Oppenheimer the 20th century Prometheus who stole fire from mankind?
- How was the antibiotic penicillin discovered in a dirty laboratory?
- Is it true that we got the vaccine thanks to cows?
《Minimum Science Study》 is a book that introduces scientific episodes that changed humanity in a way that even liberal arts students and science idiots can read without difficulty.
This one book will unfold before your eyes a wondrous intellectual experience.
You will also feel science permeating your life.
You are no longer afraid of science.
Learning the History of Science through Four Keywords: Medicine, Economics, Politics, and Philosophy
The fun of science, the joy of learning,
And intellectual culture becomes mine at once!
Science communicators Orbit and Ohmoo recommended this book, saying, “This book will leave you feeling intellectually satisfied,” and “There is no book that explains the history of science more easily than this book,” as it summarizes the vast history of science.
We captured crucial moments in the history of world science through four keywords: medicine, economics, politics, and philosophy.
Part 1, 'Medicine', tells the story of how inventions such as anesthetics, vaccines, penicillin, and X-rays became weapons for mankind.
Part 2, "Politics," reveals the full story of the commercialization of nuclear energy and space development, which took place in cooperation with those in power.
And in Part 3, 'Economy', it shows the crucial moments of the scientific and industrial revolutions that enriched human life.
The final part, Part 4, 'Philosophy', examines the beginning and end of scientific thinking, the human mental activity that has matured through science.
In the future, science will increasingly become a required subject.
Through this book, you will not only quickly and easily understand the context of the history of science, but also gain a valuable compass for navigating life.
