| Summary: | Praise for A.K. Dewdney's previous book, 2000f Nothing "An entertaining, stinging expos." In today's world, 'innumeracy' is an even greater danger than illiteracy, and is perhaps even more common. I hope that this wise and witty book will provide cures where they are possible, and warnings where they are necessary. In this entertaining expose of science gone awry, the author of "200% of Nothing" tells the stories of eight notorious cases of "bad science"--research projects that turned out to be bogus, either because of faulty methodology or faulty interpretations of results. |
