"provando e riprovando"

I like the above phrase, which serves as the title to this post.  I took it from a short, interesting article which discusses the misguided thinking of idealists regarding the role of science in the world, or, more specifically the misguided assumption that the sciences are taking us down the path to hell.  Bah.

The piece is titled “Testing, testing..." and was written by Umberto Eco.
