In this 'survival manual,' Forness's goal is to teach consumers the critical tools to make them more knowledgeable about these questionable items. The topics covered include the real meaning of oscientifically proven,' methods for quantitatively analyzing such claims as 'more energy' and 'improved strength,' alternative healthcare treatments vs. hard science, fad diets, aging remedies, abuse of the labels 'certified' and 'licensed,' plus an extremely useful glossary explaining commonly used marketing terms.
