FEATURED BOOK

Before the Evidence asks a deceptively simple question: What comes before the evidence is interpreted? Through five investigations in the historical sciences, Kyle Stringer separates observation from inference and examines the assumptions and frameworks connecting evidence to conclusions. The goal is not a supplied verdict, but a method readers can use for themselves.

A SIMPLE DISTINCTION


Evidence is what is observed.  A conclusion is what we think it means.

The distance between them is where assumptions, inference, and frameworks enter.

Kyle Stringer writes about evidence, assumptions, and the reasoning that connects observations to conclusions. His work grew from a simple question: how can someone evaluate a confident claim without first becoming an expert in the subject? Balcony Research develops practical methods for examining those claims carefully, fairly, and independently.
