Don't believe the hype


Better still read Ben Goldacre's "Bad Science" book: a marvellous antidote
and eye-opener to the fads and scams perpetrated by the quacks, big pharma
and the media.


And read his weekly column in the on-line Grauniad.

http://www.nhs.uk/news/Pages/NewsIndex.aspx is also good

John Brignell's NumberWatch http://www.numberwatch.co.uk/number%20watch.htm
and his books.
