FAKE SCIENCE: Exposing the Left’s Skewed Statistics, Fuzzy Facts, and Dodgy Data

by Austin Ruse

Overview

We’re actually living in the age of the low information voter, easily mislead by all-too-convincing false statistics and studies. In Fake Science, Ruse debunks so-called “facts” used to advance political causes one after the other, revealing how poorly they stand up to actual science.
