Darryl Cunningham's graphic milestone of investigative reporting debunks media myths and decodes some of the most fiercely debated issues of our time: climate change, electroconvulsive therapy, the moon landing, homeopathy, evolution, the MMR (Measles, Mumps and Rubella) vaccine, chiropractic, science denialism, plus for this edition hydraulic fracturing. "Deals with some of the most urgent debates in science in a highly accessible way"--The Observer.

Review of 'Science Tales' on 'Goodreads'

No rating

Much like the millenial saying, "People in therapy are often in therapy to deal with the people in their lives who don't go to therapy." The people to whom this book would be of value would probably never pick this book in the first place.

Interesting read, but me and most of my goodreads friends don't need this. We all believe in vaccinations, we all know climate change is real, neither of us believe in any conspiracy related to evolution or landing on moon.
