"More than 2,000 years ago, Aristotle originated the scientific method. And it's been an uphill battle ever since. Instead of sticking to what the evidence proves, we love to believe in things like the Bermuda Triangle, personality tests, crop circles, Bigfoot, spontaneous human combustion, and UFOs. Covering everything from the easily disproved to the wildly speculative, hucksterism to conspiracy theories, pseudoscience is an entertaining, compulsively readable, and visually rich look at the history of the bizarre and our all-too-human weakness to fall for things scientifically suspect."--Back cover.
