Addicted to Placebos: Understanding Science and Society
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Addicted to Placebos is a thought-provoking book designating science as a mode to elevate our existence and enrich our minds. A must read for anyone wanting to learn how science and society amalgamate together.
This book is all about the inter-connectedness of science and the human condition. It clearly defines science and its importance to society and critical thinking. It presents science as a way of finding meaning and empowerment. It plies unchartered waters for a physical science book because it dabbles in how science relates to religion, globalization, politics, health fraud, etc.
Most physical science textbooks have been sanitized and censored to appease special interests or maximize profits. This book breaks that mold and makes strong and supported arguments that will challenge and expose dogmas and abuses.
