Airplane crashes. The AIDS epidemic. Presidential election polls and voting results. Global warming. The latest cancer scare. All these news stories require scientific savvy first, to report, and then-for news consumers-to understand.
It Ain't Necessarily So cuts through the miasma surrounding media reporting of scientific studies, surveys, and statistics.
Whether the problem is bad science, media politics, or a simple lack of information or knowledge, this book gives news consumers the tools to penetrate the hype and dig out the facts.
Don't stop flying, run to the doctor, or change your diet before reading It Ain't Necessarily So.
