Good Hoover article on the Rise of Scientism

Just reading through a plethora of online articles, I found something that can be applied to economics, which is the idea of rise of "Scientism". Here is the article that is posted on the Hoover Institution website. It's quite interesting to think of how it relates to all of the 'competitive discussion' within the economics community. All of theories in each of the competing different schools of economic thought comes to mind! A good article and good food for thought for those who are interested in trying out new ideas or just a good read in general as "Scientism" is something to be entirely avoided in our field.
