About the book

Naomi Oreskes and Erik M. Conway expose the coordinated campaign by scientists and companies to sow doubt about established scientific findings, particularly regarding smoking, acid rain, ozone layer destruction, and climate change. The work shows how public relations strategies and disinformation can undermine scientific consensus.

A rigorous study of how commercial and ideological interests distort scientific truth, with profound implications for public policy and public health.
