Publisher's Synopsis

As technology continues to advance, the exchange of information and conversation is faster than ever. But with quicker and more accessible dialogue comes a larger chance for misinformation to spread. Some myths have been spread for years, such as that humans use only 10% of their brains, and others have surfaced because of recent events, including false information about the lasting side effects of vaccines. This volume investigates enduring scientific misconceptions, providing a clearer framework for discerning fact from fiction in an increasingly complex informational landscape. By incorporating scientific studies and technological insights, the volume examines not only circulating myths themselves, but the importance of referencing verified sources and examples to have an informed approach to analyzing information.
