Fortunately, you don't need a BS in Science to spot science BS. This guide from educator Dave Farina, aka YouTube's Professor Dave, is a playful yet practical investigation of popular opinions and consumer trends that permeate our society. Shoppers insist on "organic" everything even if they're unable to define the term. Healers and quantum mystics secure a foothold alongside science-based medicine in an unregulated and largely unchallenged landscape. Misleading marketing is used to sell you products and services that range from ineffectual to downright dangerous. With the knowledge gained from Dave Farina's simple explanations of basic scientific principles, you can learn to spot misinformation and lies on the internet before they spot you. Learn the real science behind such semi-controversial subjects as drugs, vaccines, energy, and biotechnology-and most importantly, arm yourself with the critical-thinking skills everyone needs in a world filled with nonsense.
