Summary | The article, titled "Falsification and Progress," discusses the importance of falsification in the progress of science. The author argues that progress in biology depends on falsification, which provides room for alternative ideas. The article also highlights the misapprehension that scientists have that their observations are theory-free, which leads to a lack of coherent underlying concepts.

The article also challenges the belief that all viruses are pathogenic and that the latent virus HIV is the cause of AIDS.
