Featured TItle: The Demon-Haunted World

Elena Recommends: As relevant now as it was when it was first written, maybe more so. Astronomer Carl Sagan explores why humans are so prone to believing hoaxes, pseudoscience, and snake oil. His famous chapter on using your "baloney detection kit" walks his readers through how to identify and counter logical fallacies and other faulty thinking. A must read for anyone living in this moment in time where critical thinking and scientific reasoning are under attack. Find it at the library!
