To je bullshit!: Važnost skepticizma u svijetu koji pokreću podaci

Carl T. Bergstrom, Jevin D. West

That's Bullshit! is an accessible and entertaining read that combines scientific accuracy with humor, making it a useful resource for anyone who wants to develop skills in recognizing and countering misinformation in everyday life.

The book That's bullshit! by American scientists Carl T. Bergstrom and Jevin D. West, is a manual for recognizing and combating misinformation in the digital age. ​

The authors, professors from the University of Washington, use the term "bullshit" to describe intentionally or unintentionally misleading information that spreads through the media, social networks, and scientific sources. The book provides tools for critical thinking, including recognizing false causality, selection bias, and graph manipulation. ​

One of the key concepts is Brandolini's law, which states that it takes much more effort to refute disinformation than to spread it. The book also warns of the dangers misinformation poses to health, science and democracy, citing examples such as the anti-vaxxer movement and political manipulation.
