"Airplane crashes, the AIDS epidemic, presidential election polls and voting results, global warming, the latest cancer scare - all these news stories require scientific savvy, first to report, and then - for news consumers - to understand. It Aint Necessarily So cuts through the miasma surrounding media reporting of scientific studies, surveys, and statistics.

Whether the problem is bad science, media politics, or a simple lack of information or knowledge, this book gives news consumers the tools to penetrate the hype and dig out the facts."--BOOK JACKET.
