Bøker av Mano Singham

Many people are admirers of science and are eager to know more about it but are woefully unaware of why that knowledge is so powerful. That lack of understanding can be exploited by those with harmful agendas to sow doubt about the validity of the consensus conclusions arrived at by scientists about issues of major importance. This book's explanation of why the theories of science work so well without being true may not only surprise them, it would also enable themto counter harmful anti-science agendas and provide practical benefits by enabling them to make much better judgments about issues in their everyday lives.

Here, Mano Singham takes a look at the problem of the Black/White achievement gap in the context of larger political realities and argues that in order to understand it we must determine what is happening within the educational system as a whole.
