    About this ebook

    The must-read summary of Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway’s book: “Merchants of Doubt: How a Handful of Scientists Obscured the Truth on Issues from Tobacco Smoke to Global Warming”. 

    This complete summary of “Merchants of Doubt” by Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway, two prominent science historians, presents their account of how a group of top scientists ran campaigns in order to confuse the public over the validity of scientific discoveries on issues such as global warming, the dangers of smoking and acid rain. In their book, the authors reveal the actions of this scientific community and how they have prevented the understanding of some of the most important global issues. 

    Added-value of this summary:
    • Save time
    • Understand how politics can cause a conflict of interest with scientific facts and research
    • Expand your knowledge of politics and science

    To learn more, read “Merchants of Doubt” and discover the truth that scientists have been trying to hide.
