Synopsis
"Short and highly readable. It tells good stories about human foolishness masquerading as science. It offers useful assistance to citizens trying to tell the difference between sense and nonsense... Charpak and Broch have done a fine job, sweeping out the money-changers from the temple of science and exposing their tricks." -- New York Review of Books
"One of those books I wish I'd written." -- James Randi, Physics Today
