Resumen del Editor
As consumers of medical news, how can we know whether the article we just read is based on solid science or is just an ill-informed attempt to grab readers? Professor Roy Benaroch of Emory University School of Medicine provides just the direction we need in The Skeptic’s Guide to Health, Medicine, and the Media. In 24 fascinating lectures that address the most important health issues of our day - heart health, obesity, longevity, the opioid crisis, the stigma of mental illness, alternative medicine approaches, toxins in the environment, and more - Dr. Benaroch tells us how to recognize the good reporting and the bad.
With his guidance, you’ll create a “Skeptic’s Toolkit”, asking the questions that take you past the headlines and beyond the way health news is typically reported. You’ll learn six specific questions to always keep in mind as you read any article in print or online: What’s the source of the article? Is the evidence presented strong enough to be valuable? Is someone trying to sell me something? Is this study about people like me, and are the factors they’re measuring in the study important to me? Does the report present a viewpoint from scientists not directly involved in the study? And is the story itself sensible, fitting in with what we already know? Armed with these questions, you’ll be able to find valuable information to help inform your own health care decisions, without falling prey to snappy-sounding articles that have no basis in solid science.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Your nervous system is you. All the thoughts, perceptions, moods, passions, and dreams that make you an active, sentient being are the work of this amazing network of cells. For many centuries, people knew this was true. But no one was sure how it happened. Now, thanks to the exciting new field of neuroscience, we can chart the workings of the brain and the rest of the nervous system in remarkable detail to explain how neurons, synapses, neurotransmitters, and other biological processes produce all the experiences of everyday life, in every stage of life.

Memory is, without a doubt, the most powerful (and practical) tool of everyday life. By linking both your past and your future, memory gives you the power to plan, to reason, to perceive, and to understand. Yet while all of us have an amazing capacity for memory, there are plenty of times when it seems to fail us. Why does this happen? And how can you fix it? In Scientific Secrets for a Powerful Memory, you’ll explore the real research on how memory functions - and then apply these findings to help you make better use of the memory abilities you have.

Charles Darwin's theory of organic evolution-the idea that life on earth is the product of purely natural causes, not the hand of God-set off shock waves that continue to reverberate through Western society, and especially the United States. What makes evolution such a profoundly provocative concept, so convincing to most scientists, yet so socially and politically divisive? These 12 eye-opening lectures are an examination of the varied elements that so often make this science the object of strong sentiments and heated debate.

"It doesn't take an Einstein to understand modern physics," says Professor Wolfson at the outset of these 24 lectures on what may be the most important subjects in the universe: relativity and quantum physics. Both have reputations for complexity. But the basic ideas behind them are, in fact, simple and comprehensible by anyone. These dynamic and illuminating lectures begin with a brief overview of theories of physical reality starting with Aristotle and culminating in Newtonian or "classical" physics.

Excellent information to help people critically assess medical stories
Dr. Benaroch provides laymen with tools to assess stories about various health issues in the news and on social media sites. He takes each medical issue and specifically analyzes information relating to that issue from a number of news stories. For instance, he discusses how many details were taken from an original research paper and whether those details were accurately reported. Dr. Benaroch also analyzes the research papers themselves to determine how well the study was done. Finally, he helps people to see through deceptive stories from companies who basically want to sell a medical product or medicine. I would love to listen to this program again, and I will definitely listen to or read other publications by Dr. Benaroch!

Another great series by Dr Benaroch
I’m a huge fan of Dr Benaroch’s Grand Rounds courses and was giddy when I saw he had another set out, especially on taking a rational view of medicine in the media. Like the other titles it is a very approachable and informational series of lectures using real works examples and current trends. Very valuable and with Dr Benaroch’s excellent presentation is highly recommended. .

The Story Behind the Story
This lecture series made me more aware of factors that can skew the media's coverage of health issues. The powerful influence of vested interests and partisans of all stripes is apparently much more pervasive than I had naively assumed. Despite the course's title, Dr. Benaroch is not a hardcore skeptic.* He cites several examples of the media's positive role in raising public awareness, and he most certainly does not encourage listeners to automatically reject every single piece of medical journalism they come across. Rather, Dr. Benaroch invites us (and equips us) to adopt a more critical frame of mind so that we may better discern "the story behind the story" in the medical news we consume. Dr. Benaroch's lecture style is professional, pleasant and extremely polished. This is a well-delivered course of broad general interest.
* I like Dr. Benaroch's definition of a skeptic as one who reserves judgement in the absence of conclusive evidence.

Excellent. More Like This Please
Skepticism presented at its best, thoughtful, considered, to the point, and with an assured command of the best facts and evidence as of the time of recording. Magnificent. Thank you to all concerned. Encores please, as appropriate.

A Good Listen
You can tell the lecturer is a doctor rather than a media scholar, but the basic information for critical thinking is here. And he has a pleasant voice and speaking style.
