Science in the 14th century - a primary document

Thank you for your participation and interest in the Mises Community. This software platform has seen its day, however, and so is now closed. We are redoing our entire site, so look for some exciting developments by the end of the year. Thank you for your support of Austrian economics, liberty, and peace.

Starting at page 177:

The science of the Black Death according to a man of the time. The thing is, his explanation sounds scientific, and he even addresses the objections (which themselves were good) relatively well (though he employs a few fiat and circular arguments).

I think it gives you some pause and makes you consider science and how certain we are in some things.
