Science Tales: Lies, Hoaxes and Scams

Previously published as How to Fake a Moon Landing, and nominated for the Great Graphic Novels for Teens List from Young Adult Library Services Association, this new edition has been updated to include a clinical exposé of fracking

A graphic milestone of investigative reporting, Cunningham’s essays explode the lies, hoaxes, and scams of popular science, debunking media myths and decoding some of today’s most fiercely-debated issues: climate change, electroconvulsive therapy, the moon landing, the MMR (Measles, Mumps and Rubella) vaccine, homeopathy, chiropractic, evolution, science denialism, and, new for this edition, fracking. Thoroughly researched and sourced, Cunningham’s clear narrative, graphic lines, and photographic illustration explain complicated and controversial issues with deceptive ease.
