Abstract

Nietzsche said: a person who knows a why to live can bear almost any how.
What is philosophy? What is it that we call science and why we need philosophy and more of it in sciences especially social sciences?
Philosophy is thinking, feeling, criticizing and questioning and coming up with ideas about existence, life and how to live life in every detail of it. Science on the other hand is observation of nature and reality and try to formulate it in a hypothesis using logic and mathematics and prove it based on logic and test it using experiments. Science had a major and exponential progress since age of enlightenment in 17th century and specially for the past 40 years ago with the birth of internet. On the other hand, Despite the claim of Ludwig Wittgenstein that said he solved all the essential problems of philosophy, after 2000 years of philosophical investigation we don't have any idea what love is and what is the point of life? Two extremely important questions in philosophy and also with implications in Science and having a scientific career.
