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, longspanning 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 scienceforhire 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.

It is an urgent, revelatory work, one that promises to reorient conversations around science and the public good for the foreseeable future.
