Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardback octavo, dustjacket, very good plus condition (in very good plus dustjacket). 200 pp. Watch the news, and you'll be overwhelmed by snippets of badly presented science: information that's incomplete, confusing, contradictory, out-of-context, wrong, or flat-out dishonest. Defend yourself! A science writer (University of California) provides a powerful arsenal of tools for making sense of science. You'll learn how to think more sensibly, and how to make better science-related decisions in both your personal life and as a citizen. Understand how science really works, and why scientists sometimes disagree. Assess the biases of those who make scientific claims in the media, and place scientific issues in appropriate context, so you can intelligently assess trade-offs. Determine whether a new study is really meaningful - uncover the difference between cause and coincidence - figure out which statistics mean something. Reveals the tricks self-interested players use to mislead and confuse you, and points you to reliable information sources.…
