Bad Science

Wednesday, June 10th, 2009 | science

Although science is at the heart of our western lifestyle, a lot of people are still very very fuzzy on the scientific method, and how to verify scientific claims for themselves. While evolution is hotly contested by people who also happen to believe a big old invisible man is pulling the strings that make the universe work, there is also a lot of day to day gruff that gets passed off with comments such as ’scientifically proven…’. Dr Ben Goldacre has set himself up as the Omnibudsman of Bad Science and on his website he takes pseudo-scientists to task for their pseudo-advice.
