摘要: Presenting an exquisite collection of comic bullshit cartoon abstracts (illustrated summaries of fictional scientific research papers) that deal with utterly trivial research subjects–from dog politics to the end of the hotel breakfast buffet, and from saving the daylight to revaluing the Judgment of Paris in Greek mythology, using Decision-Making Roleplaying theory–this playful little book recognizes scholars for the bullshit they offer society, in the form of expert accounts, technical jargon, and supporting evidence. Contra conventional wisdom, it celebrates the role of bullshit and bullshitting in the construction and maintenance of knowledge, science, and erudition.
