Science denial : why it happens and what to do about it (engelsk)


Description


How do individuals decide whether to accept human causes of climate change, vaccinate their children against childhood diseases, or practice social distancing during a pandemic? This book offers psychological explanations for science denial and doubt with a focus on key psychological constructs such as reasoning biases, social identity, and emotions and attitudes that limit or facilitate public understanding of science.
