Abstract : We believe that this paper is an important part and a core constituent of our ongoing globalization of science movement. Before we move on to the meat and to the essence of this paper, we commence it by discussing what evidence is, and also by emphasizing its importance and value in science. We also discuss different types of evidence summarily as they are understood by scientists, researchers and laymen, and explain what is meant by contradictory evidence as well. The same exercise is repeated with respect to both data and paradoxes, and the different types of data and paradoxes are also scrutinized and analyzed, by drawing information and inspiration from several of our previous papers, and also from commonly known and widely available data and information. The meat and the core essence of this paper lies in the delineation and the systematic discussion and exploration of the core components of this approach, along with the steps involved, and the raison d’etre for each step. We then wind up this paper by providing a large number of case studies and examples, and offering suggestions and advice on how researcher and scholars must go about implementing such approaches in the cause and in the interests of good, high quality and repeatable science. This will male science must more widely accessible and palatable to the layperson, and can led to what we have always called ‘Scientific progress at the speed of light”.
