The stickler's guide to science in the age of misinformation : the real science behind hacky headlines, crappy clickbait, and suspect sources / R. Philip Bouchard.
R. Philip Bouchard takes a closer look at 13 pervasive scientific untruths tackling a range of topics from gravity and radiation to global warming, pandemics and humorously shares the real science behind them. You'll learn why trees do not store carbon dioxide, why getting your genome sequenced tells you much less than you think it does, and why a day is not actually 24 hours.
