“Once upon a time, scientists could assume that people would take their hard work, believe it, and put it to use. No longer—as Michael Mann and Peter Hotez make painfully clear, a concentrated assault by special interests has made the work of science painful and perilous. Science Under Siege is a well-researched guide and offers some powerful ideas about how to fight back.”―Bill McKibben, author of Here Comes the Sun

The definitive biography of American suffragist and women’s rights pioneer Elizabeth Cady Stanton, from a preeminent historian of women’s suffrage “The life of Elizabeth Cady Stanton still has much to teach us. The invented prisons of race, sex, and class are still with us, but learning about successful past struggles against them can help to equalize the future.” —Gloria Steinem…

NOBODY'S FOOL, my second book co-authored with @profsimons, was published today by @BasicBooks! It's about how deception works—the patterns inherent in successful frauds and scams, and the cognitive science of how we respond to them. Much more info here:
