Voodoo Science Paperback - 2001

by Park, Robert

  • Used
  • Paperback

While remaining highly humorous, this account leads readers down the back alleys of fringe science, through the corridors of Washington power, and even into our evolutionary past to spot the fraudulent science to be found everywhere.

Description

Ten chapters on how science is abused and denied, without even getting to anti-vaxxers and climate denial. Very little wear. Cover wants to curl a little.

Thanks for visiting Turtleman Books.

Opened August 1st of 2022, Turtleman Used Books in Olympia, WA. Address is 108 22nd Ave SW, Olympia, WA 98501. Suite #4. This is a small shop, so some books may only be displayed online, others only displayed in the store. Come on by if you are in town. Closed Monday and Tuesday. Many of my books are oversized. Rather than ask for shipping adjustments at the time of purchase, the list price for heavier books includes the excess shipping cost. All of my photographs are of the actual product, taken by my trusty little Kindle Fire. Currently we have about 2900 books offered for sale online, with more being added daily. Check back frequently to see what's new. -----
