Synopsis | La araña huachicolera exposes the evidence -or the lack of it- behind popular beliefs, urban legends, quackery and myths that rule the world of pseudoscience, those that appear in the digital media accompanied by phrases such as "science says so" or "scientists assure". The author of this work demystifies -with ironic touches- those dogmas that have been reproduced as an incessant loop in different media and that have no support whatsoever. |
