Monkeys, myths, and molecules : separating fact from fiction, and the science of everyday life / Dr. Joe Schwarcz.
The Internet is a powerful beast when it comes to science: the answer to any query is just a few keystrokes away. But when there are multiple answers from various sources, how do we know what information is reliable? In "Monkeys, Myths, and Molecules," bestselling author Dr. Joe Schwarcz takes a critical look at how facts are misconstrued in the media. He debunks the myths surrounding canned food, artificial dyes, SPF, homeopathy, cancer, chemicals, and much more. Unafraid to expose the sheer nonsense people are led to believe, Dr. Joe confronts pseudoscience and convincingly and entertainingly, advocates for a scientific approach to life.
