class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The author, statistician and philosopher of science Professor William M Briggs, takes the reader on a journey through the

Briggs said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not all science is broken, but much of it is, and much&nbsp;else is of little real use. Why is this? I hope my paper explains why.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Net Zero Watch director Andrew Montford said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a thoroughly entertaining romp through the details of a very serious problem for society.
