| The quote from [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Bohr|Niels Bohr]], //"In the Institute, we only have one piece of experimental equipment: a ping-pong table"// is a good example of reductive reasoning in science. It suggests that groundbreaking discoveries can be achieved not through extensive experimental setups but rather through the adjustment of theoretical laws and conditions. Bohr highlights the power of thought experiments and abstract reasoning, emphasising that manipulating underlying principles can lead to new insights without always needing physical experimentation. | The quote from [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Bohr|Niels Bohr]], //"In the Institute, we only have one piece of experimental equipment: a ping-pong table"// is a good example of reductive reasoning in science.
