Title: Horrific
Review: As someone working on a degree in science, many parts of this book disturbed me. Not because they were shocking or eye-opening. In fact, anyone who's spent anytime around science has heard many of Bethell's assertions. They aren't new. I was disturbed because this book shows a lack of thought. Many of the things in it are either plain wrong, or stretches, bends, and exaggerations of current knowledge. Without science, what would we do? A new illness spreads and we, what, do a fire dance to be rid of it? We want stronger materials to make safer buildings so we start mixing a bunch of crap in a hot bucket and hope something new comes out (granted, scientists sometimes like putting random stuff in beakers, not usually buckets though)? Has science itself been politicized? No. Science is a method, a point of view, a way of analyzing the world. Have certain scientists been corrupted? Of course. That isn't the fault of science.
