Opis: The Skeptics Guide to the Universe - Steven Novella
`Thorough, informative, and enlightening... If this book does not become required reading for us all, we may well see modern civilization unravel before our eyes.` Neil deGrasse Tyson, author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry
In this tie-in to their popular `The Skeptics Guide to the Universe` podcast, Steven Novella, along with `Skeptical Rogues` Bob Novella, Cara Santa Maria, Jay Novella and Evan Bernstein explain the tenets of skeptical thinking and debunk some of the biggest scientific myths, fallacies and conspiracy theories (anti-vaccines, homeopathy, UFO sightings, and many more.) They`ll help us try to make sense of what seems like an increasingly crazy world using powerful tools like science and philosophy.
The Skeptics` Guide to the Universe is your guide through this maze of modern life. It covers essential critical thinking skills, as well as giving insight into how your brain works and how to avoid common pitfalls in thinking. They discuss the difference between science and pseudoscience, how to recognize common science news tropes, how to discuss conspiracy theories with that crazy colleague of yours, and how to apply all of this to everyday life.
