By David Michaels
In Doubt Is Their Product, David Michaels reveals how industry manipulates scientific research to sow doubt about the dangers of its products. This groundbreaking exposé traces the history of industry-funded research, from the tobacco industry's campaign to cast doubt on the link between smoking and cancer to the sugar industry's efforts to downplay the role of sugar in obesity. Michaels shows how industry scientists have used a variety of tactics to distort the scientific record, including cherry-picking data, misinterpreting studies, and suppressing research that does not support their claims.
Doubt Is Their Product is a wake-up call for consumers, policymakers, and scientists. It shows how industry has corrupted the scientific process and made it difficult for the public to make informed decisions about the products they buy and the policies that protect their health and the environment.
Michaels is a leading expert on the tobacco industry and has served as an advisor to the World Health Organization. He has written extensively about the dangers of smoking and the tobacco industry's efforts to deceive the public. Doubt Is Their Product is his most important work to date, and it is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand how industry manipulates science to protect its profits.
