Product Description

Is there any truth in alien abduction and cold fusion, homeopathy and world overpopulation, recovered momories and conspiracy theories? Michael Shermer and his team of scientists and scholars have created an open-minded two-volume set that gives evidence both for and against extraordinary theories. Four A-Z sections examine these phenomena from different perspectives. Contemporary analyses investigate alternative medicine, satanic ritual abuse, cryonic and the Bible code. Case studies look in-depth at police psychics, creationism, recovered memories and the search for Noah's ark. Pro and con debates between experts explore alien abduction, race and sports and the JFK lone assassin theory. Historical documents excerpt Benjamin Franklin and Antoine Lavoisier's report on mesmerism and the Condon Report on UFOs. Each entry closes with a bibliography of books on that subject, from both believers perspectives.

Debunking mythology5
Even if your not a believer in the supernatural there's more to fight off such as astrology,acupuncture,UFO's,and other delusions you might think true but has no evidence. Great for debating those creationists and other weird beliefs people seem to have.
