Are Scientists Hiding? Myths of the 21st Century

Official historians are deceiving us: in ancient times, there were civilizations far more powerful than ours. It has been proven that the Egyptians couldn't have built the pyramids, the ancient Britons didn't erect Stonehenge on their own, and a person is the product of genetic engineering by aliens. Humans lived on Earth hundreds of millions of years ago. The main driver of our ancestors' evolution was radiation. Drinking milk and eating grains is not allowed – after all, Stone Age people exclusively consumed raw meat. Should we believe these statements? Why, in an era when genetics, nuclear physics, and medicine have reached unprecedented heights, does pseudoscience thrive, and scientists groan under the onslaught of militant amateurs? How should we fight against obscurantism, protect ourselves from pseudoscientific nonsense, and avoid stepping onto the path of 'alternativists'? Alexander Sokolov answers these and other relevant questions in his book with irony and excitement.
