Beschreibung
Anti-scientific misinformation is rampant in both the US and Europe. One aspect of this issue is the use of poor mathematical arguments to promote pseudo-sciences like creationism and intelligent design. This book refutes those arguments and explains key concepts in both biology and mathematics for lay and professional readers alike.
