Just finished reading "The Panic Virus" which is about the now-discredited link between Autism and vaccinations. A very gripping book, one I was glad to read. It was written in enough layman's terminology to not lose me. It is pretty amazing to me that people still refuse to acknowledge there is not strong (or even weak) evidence to link Autism and vaccinations. But then, historically, there has always been at least a measure of distrust about vaccinations dating back to much earlier than the current controversy. I am now reading "Inside Scientology" to keep the controversial streak going. It too is a good read, though I am only about 20% through it thus far. After this, something light. I have the Hunter Thompson Rolling Stone Anthology on my Nook and am thinking of getting "Crackpot" by John Waters, though I have read it many times.
