Alternative science

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alternative science may refer to:

  • Fringe science, ideas whose attributes include being highly speculative or relying on premises already refuted
  • Protoscience, a research field that has the characteristics of an undeveloped science that may ultimately develop into an established science
  • Pseudoscience, consisting of statements, beliefs, or practices that claim to be both scientific and factual but are incompatible with the scientific method
