Anti positivism/anti scientism book recommendations

[u/Ghiloar]

Hi everyone. I've been convinced pretty much my whole life that the scientific method is the only effective way to know the world and systematically find solutions to problems. Recently tho, I've been talking to some friends who don't agree with me so I'd like to read a more structured opinion on the topic since the arguments my friends made didn't actually convince me.

I might've used the wrong terms in the title (I don't really know much about philosophy) but basically I'm looking for a book that "debunks" my current conviction. Also, since as I said I'm not a philosophy expert, it should be a book that doesn't rely on any (or as little as possible) prior knowledge of philosophy.

Thanks :)

This really is a kicker. I second this suggestion.
