Sheril Kirshenbaum (co-author with Chris Mooney) brings us UNSCIENTIFIC AMERICA: HOW SCIENTIFIC ILLITERACY THREATENS OUR FUTURE, with a discussion of the dangers of misunderstanding and mistrust, and proposals to reverse the trend.

I’m looking forward to meeting readers and offer some fine bluegrass from Old Crow Medicine Show to get you in a Raleigh state of mind:

Unscientific America might just become a movement! When I was teaching A.P. Biology, my students were hungry for this stuff. What a great thing it would be if the conversation you’ve started grows and grows!
