I just finished reading this book and feel that it or a book like it should be must reading for just about everyone. Dr. Ben Goldacre's book is about all the 'bad science' we are constantly bombarded with in the media and in advertising,why this happens, and how to recognize it.
He is a British MD who like Carl Sagan has a knack for explaining science principles in easy to understand language.
