Sommario/riassunto

This ebook consists of a summary of the ideas, viewpoints and facts presented by Chris Mooney and Sheril Kirshenbaum in their book "Unscientific America: How Scientific Illiteracy Threatens Our Future". This summary offers a concise overview of the entire book in less than 30 minutes reading time. However this work does not replace in any case Chris Mooney's and Sheril Kirshenbaum's book.<br>Mooney and Kirshenbaum argue that science and society have been disconnected in the modern area they show the consequence and propose solutions to that situation. <br>
