Eloquent, insightful and bold, this book is a must-read in our post-truth time

Naomi Oreskes is professor of history of science and affiliated professor of earth and planetary sciences at Harvard University in the US. The book is based on her 2016 Princeton University lectures on human values, and commentaries on these lectures from experts in related fields. As such, it isn’t light, easy reading. But don’t let this put you off, it is very much worth taking the time to read.
