This unforgettable book will make you laugh as it unveils the crazy world of Nonscience, the dodgy descendant of science. It will make your toes curl as it shows how the Experts are taking over every aspect of our lives. Nobody understands the rules for COVID-19 because Experts have confused everyone. And there is false news everywhere. No, the Amazon is not the lungs of the world, it doesn't produce our oxygen. Paper bags in supermarkets are worse than plastic; producing paper causes far more pollution. Are you giving up your fried breakfast for a healthy quiche? Don't-the quiche is more likely to harm you. Japan is introducing clean cars, powered by hydrogen, but this remarkable book reveals that the powerplant producing the fuel is the filthiest in the world. Why is every major TV station promoting a bake-off show? Those recipes-with sugar, cream, fat, and carbohydrate-cause more disease than anything else we eat. You send kids to university to train their brains, but they go because it's the easiest way to leave home. They like it because they can get high, drunk, and laid, any time they want. A degree will always be their reward, even if they stay in bed all day, because universities must keep their place in the league tables. Students end up more in debt than their parents, after handing over borrowed money to fund the college's dubious ambitions. Many institutes prosper by misappropriating other people's research and claiming it as their own. Most of the best careers-from being an inventor or a computer consultant to a life coach or a web designer-don't need a degree. The great names of our digital age (Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Clive Sinclair, Mark Zuckerberg) didn't graduate, while Pasteur, Crick, Watson, Dunlop, and hundreds of other great names made discoveries in very different areas than those for which they were qualified. Much of the technology you see around you was invented by an amateur. With more than 300 pages, over 150 amusing cuttings, and well over 100 revealing illustrations, Nonscience Returns has been written by one of our best-known scientists, a leading author and television broadcaster. It is guaranteed to entertain, enlighten, and engage you in an astonishing explanation of how the modern world works. Read this to be informed, so you'll be ready next time your path is crossed by-an Expert.
