In The Stickler's Guide to Science in the Age of Misinformation, Bouchard takes a closer look at pervasive scientific illiteracy and offers readers the real science behind their commonly held beliefs. Bouchard unpacks all the ways we misuse scientific terms and shows readers what these vital concepts really mean. Readers will learn why trees do not "store" carbon dioxide; why getting your genome sequenced tells you much less than you think it does; and why a day is not actually 24 hours.
