In order to determine our worldview and make informed decisions that affect our lives, we, among other things, need to form our attitude towards the statements of experts and the results of scientific research. “Scientists lie and hide everything” or “scientists have proven it, so it’s true”? Between these two extremes lies a huge field of ambiguity, and Stuart Ritchie's book helps us navigate it and find our position. With stunning examples, Ritchie describes systemic problems in the public communication of scientific work and the structure of scientific work itself, allowing us to critically rethink everything we have read, watched and listened to about science so far. However, it does not take away our hope for progress at all - on the contrary, we learn a lot about what is being done and what else can be done so that trust in the work of scientists is strengthened on more reliable and sustainable grounds.
