A Must-read for all men and women with the 'scientific tempe,
This review is from: Fragile Science: The Reality Behind the Headlines (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful review of the evidence behind many of the 'everybody knows that..' kind of 'fact'. Is it really true that cholesterol is linked to heart disease? Is global warming really happening? how much can we trust the experts who blithely condense such complex issues into simplistic sound-bites? Surely such questions are too important to be left to the 'experts' - each one of us needs to understand the facts for ourselves. This book helps us do precisely that.
Robin Baker does a marvellous job of reviewing, analysing and dissecting the scientific studies on some of the really crucial issues facing us today. And he does it with an easy smile, and no sign of ideological biases of any kind. This books is fun to read, even though the topics are difficult. I could not put the book down, and recommend it to everyone I know (and now,. even to those I don't!) |
