The War on Science will change how you see the world
Shawn Otto’s new book is a must-read
Every so often a book comes along that changes the way you view the world. The War on Science: Who’s Waging It, Why It Matters, What We Can Do About It by Shawn Otto is one of those rare books. If you care about attacks on climate science and the rise of authoritarianism, if you care about biased media coverage or shake-your-head political tomfoolery, this book is for you.
Come hear nationally award-winning science writer and internationally known speaker Shawn Otto, co-founder and producer of the US Presidential Science Debates, in this amazing interactive presentation about life at the intersection of science and politics at the highest reaches of our government.
Learn who’s waging the war on science, why it it posing an existential threat to our democratic form of government, what it has to do with the media and “post-fact politics,” how public relations campaigns are used to fool the public, and what we can do to win it.
Shawn was recently featured on NPR’s Science Friday, and in National Geographic, Science, Time, Newsweek, Scientific American, the Christian Science Monitor, Media Matters, The Guardian, the World Policy Journal, and Inside Climate News, to name just a few, and you can catch a recent speech he gave on CSPAN coast to coast over the course of the fall.
If you care about the role of science and evidence in our politics, this presentation is not to be missed!
Shawn will also have books for sale and signing.
