More about the book

The book critiques the rise of misinformation, highlighting the prevalence of conspiracy theories, pseudoscience, and historical distortions in contemporary society. Damian Thompson argues that the internet amplifies these falsehoods, leading to a generation that embraces "counterknowledge." He emphasizes the urgent need to defend scientific reasoning against the tide of unproven claims and irrational beliefs. Drawing inspiration from notable works in the realm of skepticism, this text serves as a passionate call for a return to evidence-based understanding in an increasingly deceptive world.
