How can one become a scientist, an economist, a historian... ? Does it simply involve reading many books on the subject? Does it involve observing, thinking and doing experiments?
Science involves various experiments, analysis, hypothesis and conclusions. By simply regarding we can just get facts but cannot get the reasons behind a particular one result. Many diseases which were thought to be incurable in the past have been overcome by means of scientific inventions and discoveries by making vaccines or many other medicines. Subjects like history or economics may not be regarded as science in vague terms but if we go deep in these subjects, we find that the economics is a science of human behavior and paradoxes. Either it is observing of human behavior or historical building. These are the experiments which enables us to form scientific theory.
