Despite the catchy title, I found this book very enlightening with some of the "alternate" claims on science topics as diverse as evolution, climate change, vaccinations, fake archaeology, and even a chapter that discusses the paranormal, Nostradamus, and horoscopes.
John Grant has written a book that is written for a general audience, which can be useful if used with adults or college students.
The author mentions the Dunning-Kruger Effect and how people overestimate how much they know on a topic so they aren't able to see the fallacies they are professing to be scientific truth. He also does a good job of explaining why spreading these ideas is damaging by giving several examples, which included AIDS and how obstructing ideas caused more problems than solutions, and "safe smoking" that was promoted by the tobacco companies.
This book includes footnotes in every chapter and a bibliography at the end so more research could be done on the topics presented in the book.
The author has written more than 70 books, which include a series of books on the misunderstanding of science.
Note: The word "bullsh*t" is used in the book several times so take that into consideration based on your audience.
