Description
Ben Goldacre - a full-time doctor in the British National Health System, author, radio producer, and well-known in Britain for his column "Bad Science" in The Guardian - has achieved what very few have: to "stir up" the healthcare industry in Britain.
His book "Bad Science", which is finally available in Greece, has sparked a great discussion in Britain and the rest of Europe about all those who exploit the field of public health and play with the pain of millions of people worldwide.
Goldacre "...frothing with entirely justified anger, mercilessly attacks the quacks and charlatans who exploit science, targeting pharmaceutical companies, pseudo-nutritionists, misled researchers, and journalists" (The Times). His book is "...an excellent lesson on how to put all those enemies of reason, the charlatans who peddle falsehoods and half-truths, in their place." (The Economist)
In "Bad Science", Goldacre examines, among other things:
- How the media can use science to deceive the public or cultivate a climate of panic.
- How statistical data are often misinterpreted with dangerous results.
- The effectiveness of homeopathy.
- The myths that have been cleverly created about many vaccines.
- The truths and lies about dietary supplements and pharmaceutical companies.
In its Greek edition, the book also includes a provocative new chapter, the publication of which had been suspended until the author's definitive vindication by the British courts against all the lawsuits and claims filed against him!
