Abstract

"Fraud, ideology and politics in science"--Cover. John Grant took a fascinating look at deliberate hoaxes and frauds in the scientific world. He takes us through a rogues' gallery that features faked creatures, palaeontological trickery, false psychics, and miracle cures that aren't so miraculous. See how ideology, religion, and politics have imposed themselves on science throughout history. The themes, while entertaining as ever, are serious and timely. Fraudulent scientists -- Seeing what they wanted to see -- Military madness -- The one true book -- Ideology trumps science -- The political corruption of science : Hitler's Germany, Stalin's Russia, Bush's America.
