In case you haven’t been keeping up, I wrote a book this year – Deceived Wisdom: Why what you thought was right is wrong. It’s all about the facts that we take for granted that aren’t really facts at all. They’re ficts, you might say. The received wisdom that deceives: like taking your coat off to feel the benefit when you go out, a hot cup of tea cooling you down and (more seriously) homeopathy being anything more than sugar pills and water. I bust about 100 or so bits of deceived wisdom in this volume with what some have described as a “funny, insightful, entertaining, readable” book.
