Publisher's Summary
Dr. Philip C. Plait sets the record straight on many modern hoaxes and myths. Appalled that millions of Americans don't believe in the moon landing, or that an egg stands on its end only on the vernal equinox, Plait hilariously spills the truth and informs us of scientific inaccuracies in our everyday vernacular.
What the critics say
"Plait succeeds brilliantly because his clear and understandable explanations are convincing and honest." (Library Journal)

Great read, even if you're familiar with the topic
I thought I would already know most of the "bad astronomy," but I was surprised by how much I didn't know. but either way, this book was entertaining and informative in general.
