From salmonella in
eggs to BSE, from the Millennium Bug to bird 'flu, from DDT to passive
smoking, from asbestos to global warming, 'scares' have become one of
the most conspicuous and damaging features of our modern world. This
book for the first time tells the inside story of each of the major
scares of the past two decades, showing how they have followed a
remarkably consistent pattern.
It analyses the crucial role
played in each case by scientists who have misread or manipulated the
evidence; by the media and lobbyists who eagerly promote the scare
without regard to the facts; and finally by the politicians and
officials who come up with an absurdly disproportionate response,
leaving us all to pay a colossal price, which may run into billions or
even hundreds of billions of pounds.
The book culminates in a
chillingly detailed account of the story behind what it shows has become
the greatest scare of them all: the belief that the world faces
disaster through man-made global warming. In an epilogue the authors
compare our credulity in falling for scares to mass-hysterias of
previous ages such as the post-mediaeval 'witch craze', describing our
time as a 'new age of superstition'.
