Answering the question "How do scientists think?" is not easy. It makes sense though to ask the question because of the century-proven success of science. If that success can be unlocked for fields that do not have such a spectacular success record, it can add much value and transfer the traditional success of science to other areas of application.

In the twentieth century there was an effort to apply scientific method to management and organizational problem solving and decision making. The effort proved to be less successful than was anticipated. We have now got the benefit of hindsight, and Van Thinking spent much time researching the reasons for this initial lack of consistent success. Other approaches to problem solving filled the gap that science did not seem to be able to fill, and studying their respective development paths provided the "data" to extract the generic features of science that enable its success. We are now able to say with confidence that science can unlock much value in fields of application where it was not used previously.

This eBook unlocks the generic features of science that scientists (and those who use scientific thinking and critial thinking successfully) employ when they go about engaging problems and generating knowledge. We are not only able to answer the question "How do Scientists Think?", but also how you can do the same in your environment.

This ebook describes the study, its results and how to applly those results to your environment. We have used it successfully in management and organizational decision making and problem solving to support, and now make this approach available to you.
