Brought to you by Penguin.
We think we know bullshit when we hear it, but do we? A spotter's guide to bullshit in the wild from two brilliantly contrarian scientists.
The world is awash in bullshit and we're drowning in it.
Politicians are unconstrained by facts. Science is conducted by press release. Start-up culture elevates hype to high art. These days, calling bullshit is a noble act.
Based on a popular course at the University of Washington, Calling Bullshit gives us the tools to see through the obfuscations, deliberate and careless, that dominate every realm of our lives.
In this lively guide, biologist Carl Bergstrom and statistician Jevin West show that calling bullshit is crucial to a properly functioning social group, whether it be a circle of friends, a community of researchers, or the citizens of a nation.
Through six rules of thumb, they help us recognise bullshit whenever and wherever we encounter it - even within ourselves - and explain it to a crystal-loving aunt or casually racist grandfather.
Calling Bullshit is a modern handbook to the art of scepticism.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Another good read
When you're tempted to call the author's or on some points 😂. Good book, but then it confirmed some of my own thoughts so may be confirmation bias. Read it though. Only difficulty with the audio book is references to graphs which I completely missed as I listen to audio books in the car 🤷🏼♀️ this book perhaps better in print form.

Beautifully written, great audio performance
A very compelling argument for the times we find ourselves in. The performer was appropriate and amazing.
