    \"A Survival Guide to the Misinformation Age\"

    We live in the Information Age

    with billions of bytes of data all just two swipes away. But how much of this is of value? How much is mis-

    or dis-information? Lots.This book provides an inoculation against the misinformation epidemic by cultivating scientific habits of mind. Anyone can do it — indeed

    everyone must do it if our species is to survive on this crowded and finite planet.\n
