How to Fake a Moon Landing: Exposing the Myths of Science Denial

 A collection of "lively, plain-language refutations of seven instances of fraudulent or quack science and... antiscience bias in general" (Booklist).

Is hydro-fracking safe? Is climate change real? Did the moon landing really happen? And evolution—is it fact or fiction? Author-illustrator Darryl Cunningham looks at these and other hot-button science topics and presents a visual, fact-based assessment of current thinking and research on eight different issues everyone argues about. His lively narrative approach incorporates comics, photographs, and diagrams to create substantive yet easily accessible reportage.

Cunningham’s distinctive illustrative style shows how information is manipulated by all sides; his easy-to-follow narratives allow readers to draw their own fact-based conclusions. A graphic milestone of investigative journalism!

"Cartoonist Darryl Cunningham...is a welcome voice, shedding some much needed light on the darker areas of science and culture....Cunningham does a remarkable job with difficult material and for high school students, just opening their eyes to the world around them, this is an excellent introductory handbook."—ComicMix
