What is Science and Theory in Urban Planning about?

This document discusses the role of science in generating and testing theories that are applicable to urban and regional planning. It outlines the scientific method of posing theories as hypotheses and then confronting them with observations through inductive and deductive processes. A key insight is that theories can only be falsified or refuted, not definitively proven, based on observations. The role of digital computation and real/virtual experiments in advancing planning theories is briefly discussed.
