The author, statistician and philosopher of science Professor William M Briggs, takes the reader on a journey through the dizzying array of problems that affect science today, from the fallacy of falsification, to dodgy models, to the crisis of replication and more.
Professor Briggs said:
"Not all science is broken, but much of it is, and much else is of little real use. Why is this? I hope my paper explains why."
Net Zero Watch director Andrew Montford said:
"This is a thoroughly entertaining romp through the details of a very serious problem for society. Briggs has deployed his wit and wisdom to great effect."
