Note "Grant takes a hard and lively look at pseudoscience, speculating on whether it's just entertaining folly or (as many scientists believe), a threat to civilization. He touches on New Age twaddle, from Deepak Chopra to Rhonda Byrne's 'The Secret'; the so-called power of crystals; crypto-creatures; the 'UFO phenomenon' in all its glory; and those who interpret the Bible as accurate science, history, and prophecy."--Product description.
