#1 bestselling science writer for kids Chris Ferrie is back with the bullsh*t…but this time instead of taking down all the pseudoscience related to quantum physics, he’s examining today’s more suspect mind/body/spirit fads, including astrology, cosmic energy, aliens, young earth theories, and other “space” themes.

Another sweary science book from Chris Ferrie combines two popular trends in books and debunks the junk “science” that has permeated our society in the form of astrology and other fads. Truly hilarious and witty content elevates this book from merely a joke or gift item to a truly useful and enjoyable book to keep on your shelf long-term.

Chris Ferrie is an award-winning physicist and Senior Lecturer for Quantum Software and Information at the University of Technology Sydney. He has a Masters in applied mathematics, BMath in mathematical physics and a PhD in applied mathematics. He lives in Australia with his wife and children.
