Opis

Do you believe... ...the universe was once smaller than a grain of sand? ...the government is recording all of our phone calls? ...there are psychics who can communicate with dead people? ...there exists an all-powerful, supernatural being which created the universe? By examining a wide range of beliefs, the book "What If You're Wrong?" reveals the crucial steps that rational thinkers take when evaluating extraordinary claims and deciding what to believe. After all, each of our mistaken beliefs carries a dire cost. From the food you eat to the god you worship, every decision you make is affected by your beliefs. They influence even your understanding of reality. Shouldn't you examine each of your beliefs rationally? Nothing less than your life is at stake. "What If You're Wrong? The Dire Cost of Mistaken Beliefs" is the exciting debut of skeptic Adrian Milton. Written for believers and rational thinkers alike, the book offers a refreshingly rational look at beliefs about AIDS, global warming, organic food, 9/11 conspiracies, life after death, alien abductions, evolution, the origin of the universe, and yes....gods and religion.
