Product description
Bad Science
Dr Ben Goldacre has been exposing dodgy medical data in his popular Guardian column. In this eye-opening book he takes on the MMR hoax and misleading cosmetics ads; acupuncture and homeopathy; vitamins and mankinds vexed relationship with all manner of toxins. Along the way; the self-confessed Johnny Ball cum Witchfinder General performs a successful detox on a Barbie doll; sees his dead cat become a certified nutritionist and probes the supposed medical qualifications of Dr Gillian McKeith. Full spleen and satire; Ben Goldacre takes us on a hilarious; invigorating and ultimately alarming journey through the bad science we are fed daily by hacks and quacks.
I Think You will Find Its a Bit More Complicated Than That
In Bad Science; Ben Gold acre hilariously exposed the tricks that quacks and journalists use to distort science. In Bad Pharma; he put the $600 billion global pharmaceutical industry under the microscope. Now the pick of the journalism by one of our wittiest. most indignant and most fearless commentators on the worlds of medicine and science is collected in one volume.
