Naomi Oreskes and Erik M. Conway in 'Merchants of Doubt: How a Handful
of Scientists Obscured the Truth on Issues from Tobacco Smoke to Global
Warming' do a pretty convincing job in claiming that a small handful of
scientists (a dozen or so) with roots that go back to building the bomb
have been instrumental in confusing people about tobacco, second hand
smoke, acid rain, the ozone hole, and now global warming. Who are these
people and why are they doing this? It is worth a read.
