Well-heeled American corporations have long had a financial stake in undermining scientific consensus and manufacturing uncertainty. In The Triumph of Doubt, former Obama and Clinton official David Michaels details how corrupt science becomes public policy -- and where it's happening today. Opioids. Concussions. Obesity. Climate Change. America is a country of everyday crises -- big, long-spanning problems that persist despite their toll on the country's health. And for every case of government inaction on one of these issues, there is a set of familiar, doubtful refrains: The science is unclear. The data are inconclusive. Regulation is unjustified. It's a slippery slope. Is it? The Triumph of Doubt traces the ascendance of science-for-hire in American life and government, from its origins in the tobacco industry in the 1950s to its current manifestations across government, public policy, and even professional sports. Amid fraught conversations of "alternative facts" and "truth decay," The Triumph of Doubt wields its unprecedented access to shine a light on the machinations and scope of manipulated science in American society. It is an urgent, revelatory work, one that promises to reorient conversations around science and the public good for the foreseeable future.Binding Type: Hardcover

Lovely watch i like it a lot i usually never wear watches but ...
Lovely watch i like it a lot i usually never wear watches but this one is exceptional classy and luxurious at a good price. Packaging it also pretty neat comes with instructions and additional wrist pieces for preferred sizing. The best part is the gold color and the ability to be able to tell the Date day and number how cool can't get better than that. Watch feels comfortable and i always see people starring and complimenting. Overall extremely happy purchased over 1 year ago still looking amazing gold dip hasn't rubbed off that much.

Quality
The hands and markers are not luminous. I wish the case size was 48mm. But a very nice watch by Nixon.

Great Watch.
Color: Blue Sunray
The watch is overall great. Comes in great packaging and very easy to resize.Tells time pretty accurately once you wind it perfectly. Almost all scratches and scuffs are shown but I would bet that once you buff them out with a polishing rag itll look as good as new. The best feature for me is the glow in the hard hands. I have seen newer models that light up the entire head but since this is an older model, the glow in the dark arms will do. Perfect for a gift, the quality is great!
