by Jake Shannon

Something Is Wrong With Your Reality.You know that gnawing feeling, that feeling that deep down inside things just don't add up. Big government, big business, big religion, and big science all tell you what to believe yet the holes in their stories seem to get bigger everyday. Inside you'll learn how to navigate these holes, or anomalies, as your guide. Jake Shannon takes a fresh look at our minds and our world, offering a treatise on the fine art of mental self-defense by way of the rhetoric and philosophy of science. This meticulously researched book - How the combination of the U.S. intelligence community and media conglomerates control our country's flow of information and the truly dangerous consequences- How analogy permeates all levels of our reasoning and how it is used against you- How the root of the problem of America's health-care can be found in the American Eugenics movement of the early 20th century- How to differentiate between conspiracy theory and conspiracy evidence- How some of those at the frontiers of the science and in the intelligence community are taking psychic phenomenon very seriously...and much more in this mind-altering book on the philosophy and rhetoric of science.
