wisenheimerbooks.com Fads and Fallacies in the Name of Science —originally published in 1952 as In the Name of Science: An Entertaining Survey of the High Priests and Cultists of Science, Past and Present—was Martin Gardner's second book. (This is a more recent edition). "This witty and engaging book examines the various fads, fallacies, strange cults, and curious panaceas which at one time or another have masqueraded as science. Not just a collection of anecdotes but a fair, reasoned appraisal of eccentric theory, it is unique in recognizing the scientific, philosophic, and sociological-psychological implications of the wave of pseudoscientific theories which periodically besets the world". Publisher: Dover Publications Trade Paperback 355 pages Condition: Good- Wear, marks, nicks, and creases. Free Media Shipping in the US, paid by me. Thanks a bunch. Enjoy!
