Publisher's Note
At a time when there is an ever-widening gap between what the expert knows and the average person believes, this accessible volume clearly explains the scientific facts that are indispensable for any understanding of our material universe. Rothman provides a lively, often humorous assessment of false generalizations about the nature of science.

Industry Reviews
For the educated lay reader, physicist Rothman examines 16 standard myths about the nature of science, demonstrating that much of what passes for logical argumentation consists of the repetition of cliches that are believed to be true by large numbers of people because strong psychological forces maintain their presence in current folklore.
