Description
A Survival Guide to the Misinformation Age: Scientific Habits of MindWe live in the Information Age, with billions of bytes of data just two swipes away. Yet how much of this is mis or even disinformation? A lot of it is, and your search engine can't tell the difference. As a result, an avalanche of misinformation threatens to overwhelm the discourse we so desperately need to address complex social problems such as climate change, the food and water crises, biodiversity collapse, and emerging threats to public health.
We live in the Information Age, with billions of bytes of data just two swipes away. Yet how much of this is mis- or even disinformation? A lot of it is, and your search engine can't tell the difference. As a result, an avalanche of misinformation threatens to overwhelm the discourse we so desperately need to address complex social problems such as climate change, the food and water crises, biodiversity collapse, and emerging threats to public health. This book provides an inoculation against the misinformation epidemic by cultivating scientific habits of mind. Anyone can do it--indeed, everyone must do it if our species is to survive on this crowded and finite planet. This survival guide supplies an essential set of apps for the prefrontal cortex while making science both accessible and entertaining. It will dissolve your fear of numbers, demystify graphs, and elucidate the key concepts of probability, all while celebrating the precise use of language and logic. David Helfand, one of our nation's leading astronomers and science educators, has taught scientific habits of mind to generations in the classroom, where he continues to wage a provocative battle against sloppy thinking and the encroachment of misinformation.Binding Type: Paperback

Excellent Dahlia Seeds — Huge Difference in Quality
Size: 1-Pack, Style: Zinnia Dahlia, Size: 1-Pack, Style: Zinnia Dahlia
Excellent germination rate and very fast growth! I planted these seeds side-by-side with another Dahlia seed packet from a different seller on the exact same day under identical conditions, and the difference has been amazing.
By day 23, these seedlings were already thriving — healthy, vibrant, and growing quickly with a very high germination rate. The plants look strong and vigorous, and I’m extremely impressed with the quality of the seeds.
If you’re looking for Dahlia seeds that actually perform well and establish quickly, I would absolutely recommend these. I’m excited to see them continue growing and blooming

This package had more than the pkg that was supposed to have 4000, but they are coming up slowly. It is dry here, I have been watering , just enough to get the ground wet and they are scattered, but some are coming up. I also watered the space supposedly where i spread seeds from the supposedly 4000 seeds pkg. They are not coming up as much!

Didn’t get a review on the garlic powder
Size: 1-Pack, Style: Zinnia Dahlia
The seeds were okay but the garlic powder that I ordered was smaller than usual is a case of bait and switch
