About this product
Product Information
In today's world we encounter such an abundance of confusing and conflicting information regarding what to do and what not to do, what to eat and what not to eat, what is safe and what is harmful, that it is often difficult to know what is true and what is not. In Denialism , the New Yorker's Michael Specter delivers a frank and unflinching examination of the irrationality at the heart of the scare mongering and pseudo-science that stand in the way of progress and argues against modern scepticism of science and for a return to rationality. Tackling a broad range of contentious topics including genetically-modifed versus 'organic' food, concern over pharmaceutical corporations' practices, vaccination fears, and the effectiveness of complementary medicine, Denialism is at times controversial but always compelling in its strong case in favour of fact-based decision-making as individuals and as a society.

Reasonable price for a scarce book - particularly in new condition. Fairly securely packaged & posted quickly. Postal charges a bit expensive for a small, slender paperback - even if they did include tracking. From what I understand, not a lot of that goes to the seller - but instead to the Global Shipping Program. Delivered in great condition. The book itself was a bit disappointing - but that's no fault of the seller. Happy with the cost & condition of book, and ordering process etc.

The wrong item was dispatched by mistake, but the seller could not have been more helpful in expediting the refund of initial cost and return postage. Utterly reliable and proactive - greatly appreciated.
100% recommend.
