Description
"If you want to become a true scientist, you should think for at least half an hour a day in exactly the opposite way that your colleagues think," Einstein said. However, the academic community often insists on a monolithic conformity and not only fails to think "in exactly the opposite way," but also disregards and condemns anyone who dares to do so. And not rarely judges wrongly! Archimedes was wrong when he censored Aristarchus of Samos' Copernican hypothesis, and the scientific community was also wrong when, two thousand years later, it grumbled maliciously that Peyton Rous, the man who discovered carcinogenic viruses, had "a screw loose in his brain"! Marconi managed to design his transatlantic transmissions precisely because he did not know the laws of electromagnetic wave propagation, despite the contrary predictions of Pouancaré, who played with these laws. Indeed, many discoveries require above all courage, creativity, and an open mind, qualities possessed not only by authentic and anti-conformist scientists, but also by "semi-educated" outsiders who have the courage to go against the current and think that what others consider impossible.
