Science in action

In Science in Action, John Lenihan shares his irrepressible enthusiasm for science. With characteristic wit and humor, he explains how science affects our daily lives in diverse areas such as medicine, poetry, politics, the environment, and the paranormal-cheerfully debunking some popular pseudo-scientific myths along the way. 
John Fleming's delightful cartoons add wry comment to the text, making this a book enjoyable to read time and again.
