Voodoo Science
The Road from Foolishness to Fraud
Paperback Engels 2002 9780198604433Samenvatting
An entertainingly written examination of the social, economic, and political forces that elicit or support flawed or fake science and sustain it in the face of often overwhelming contrary evidence. Voodoo Science includes pseudoscience, or irrational beliefs dressed up in scientific garb, the misuse of science to deliberately mislead or confuse, and pathological science, in which scientists persist with their interpretations long after the evidence has effectively discredited them. The author is a longtime observer and commentator on the public face of science, and an official spokesman for the American Physical Society.
