The demarcation problem is not a purely theoretical dilemma of mere academic interest: it affects parents’ decisions to vaccinate children and governments’ willingness to adopt policies that prevent climate change. Pseudoscience often mimics science, using the superficial language and trappings of actual scientific research to seem more respectable. Even a well-informed public can be taken in by such questionable theories dressed up as science. . The following reviewer only gave this book three out of five stars. While there are plenty of 5-star reviews, this one most compels me, interestingly, to want to read this anthology of recent essays on the subject. Its now on my reading list. . The book is at amazon: amazon/Philosophy-Pseudoscience-Reconsidering-Demarcation-Problem-ebook/dp/B00EARH246 .
