HTML:<b>From the authors of <i>Quackery</i>, a visual and narrative history of popular ideas, phenomena, and widely held beliefs disproven by science.</b><br /> From the easily disproved to the wildly speculative, to straight-up hucksterism, <i>Pseudoscience</i> is a romp through much more than bad science—it's a light-hearted look into why we insist on believing in things such as Big Foot, astrology, and the existence of aliens. Did you know, for example, that you can tell a person's future by touching their butt? Rumpology. It's a thing, but not really. Or that Stanley Kubrick made a fake moon landing film for the US government? Except he didn't. Or that spontaneous human combustion is real? It ain't, but it can be explained scientifically.<br /> <i>Pseudoscience</i> is a wild mix of history, pop culture, and good old fashioned science–that not just entertains, but sheds a little light on why we all love to believe in things we know aren't true.
