Summary:
These days, calling bullshit is a noble act. Bergstrom and West provide a modern handbook to the art of skepticism. Cataloging bullshit in its many forms, they explain and offer readers the tools to see through the obfuscations, deliberate and careless, that dominate every realm of our lives. From misleading statistics to "fake news," Bergstrom and West help you recognize bullshit whenever and wherever you encounter it-- in data, in conversation, even within yourself. -- adapted from publisher info
