Critcal Thinking and Risk Taking
Much of what we see in newspapers, magazines and on TV regarding the sciences of nutrition, medicine and health is misleading or outright wrong. The amount of bad science foisted on the public is truly amazing. Sometimes it is the science itself that is badly done or...
