From superstition to science-an inspiring call to reclaim reason and the spirit of inquiry.

From Myths to Science by Gauhar Raza is a powerful exploration of humanity’s journey from inherited myths to rational thought, from blind faith to scientific inquiry. With clarity and conviction, Raza examines how societies construct myths, how superstition and dogma take root, and why the cultivation of a scientific temper is essential for democracy, social progress, and human dignity.

Drawing on history, philosophy, and contemporary debates, the book dismantles pseudoscience and superstition while celebrating the human spirit of curiosity. Blending his unique voice as a scientist, poet, and activist, Raza offers both analytical depth and lyrical sensitivity, making complex ideas accessible to students, thinkers, and general readers alike.
For anyone interested in the intersection of science, culture, and society, this book provides a timely and inspiring roadmap to reclaiming reason in an age of misinformation.
