AIDS is not caused by HIV. Coal and oil are not fossil fuels. Radiation exposure is good for you. Distributing more guns reduces crime. These ideas make headlines, but most educated people scoff at them. This title evaluates, for the general reader or student, nine seemingly far-out propositions culled from physics, biology, and social science.
