Will I love The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe?

In a world of fake news, alternative facts, partisan news, pseudoscience, and social media hoaxes, The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe is a panacea of sorts.  This book doesn't tell you what to think, but instead, offers guidance on using scientific skepticism to think about things critically. An excellent read for anyone in your life who, without a second thought, is convinced that anything they see on YouTube (or anywhere else, for that matter) is 100% unadulterated fact. In fact, I'm having my teen read it because he often unquestioningly believes what he finds on the Internet. Highly recommended.
