  The Deadly Rise of Anti-science...

  During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, one renowned scientist, in his famous bowtie, appeared daily on major news networks such as MSNBC, NPR, the BBC, and others.  
   
  Dr. Peter J. Hotez often went without sleep, working around the clock to develop a nonprofit COVID-19 vaccine and to keep the public informed. During that time, he was one of the most trusted voices on the pandemic and was even nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize for  
  his selfless work. He also became one of the main targets of anti-science rhetoric that gained traction through conservative news media.  
   
  In this eyewitness story of how the anti-vaccine movement grew into a dangerous and prominent anti-science element in American politics, Hotez describes the devastating impacts it has had on Americans’ health and lives. As a scientist who has endured antagonism from anti-vaxxers and been at the forefront of both essential scientific discovery and advocacy, Hotez is uniquely qualified to tell this story. By weaving his personal experiences together with information on how the anti-vaccine movement became a tool of far-right political figures around the world, Hotez opens readers’ eyes to the dangers of anti-science. He explains how anti-science became a major societal and lethal force: in the first years of the pandemic, more than 200,000 unvaccinated Americans needlessly died despite the widespread availability of COVID-19 vaccines. Even as he paints a picture of the world under a shadow of aggressive ignorance, Hotez demonstrates his innate optimism, offering solutions for how to combat science denial and save lives in the process.

  What if the greatest threat to society wasn’t ignorance—but cleverness without conscience? 
  Clouds by Aristophanes is a scathing comedic masterpiece that lampoons Socratic philosophy and the Athenian obsession with rhetorical trickery. This modern translation revives the wit, rhythm, and political punch of Aristophanes’ classic play, in which a debt-ridden father seeks to cheat his way to freedom by mastering the art of deceit—under the tutelage of a ridiculous, cloud-dwelling Socrates. 
  What you’ll discover inside: 
  •	A satirical comedy skewering philosophy, education, and generational conflict 
  •	A wildly irreverent portrait of Socrates and his absurd “Thinkery” 
  •	A sharp critique of sophistry, relativism, and rhetorical manipulation 
  •	A lively and accessible modern translation of Aristophanes’ classic 
  Join the riotous drama where logic tangles, thunder rumbles, and the line between wisdom and foolishness vanishes in the clouds.

  John R. Brinkley (July 8, 1885 – May 26, 1942) became nationally known as the "goat gland doctor" for his controversial medical practice that promised virility for his male patients. He was a pioneer in radio broadcasting and advertising, as he promoted his services to his large listening audience. Despite detractors and critics in the medical community thoroughly discrediting his methods, Brinkley operated clinics and hospitals in several states for two decades. When opposition from the organized medical community resulted in revocation of his radio and medical license he turned to politics, with two failed runs for the governorship of Kansas. Brinkley's rise to fame and fortune was as precipitous as his eventual fall: At the height of his career he had amassed millions of dollars; yet he died sick and nearly penniless, as a result of a number of malpractice, wrongful death and fraud suits brought against him.
