The Triumph of Doubt traces the ascendance of science-for-hire in American life and government, from its origins in the tobacco industry in the 1950s to its current manifestations across government, public policy, and even professional sports. Well-heeled American corporations have long had a financial stake in undermining scientific consensus and manufacturing uncertainty, in The Triumph of Doubt, former Obama and Clinton official David Michaels details how bad science becomes public policy - and where it's happening today.
