Massimo Pigliucci's Books

As professor of ecology and evolution, he does research and teaching at SUNY-Stony Brook when he is not pursuing his interests in philosophy of science at the same institution. He wrote Denying Evolution: Creationism, Scientism, and the Nature of Science , and for several years has written for The Skeptical Inquirer and published a regular column on skepticism and humanism at www.rationallyspeaking.org. Says Massimo, in introducing his website: "Skepticism, contrary to popular belief, is not a synonym for cynicism, and is most certainly not practiced by grumpy and stuffy academics. Rather, to follow David Hume, this site is about positive skepticism, or the idea that reasonable belief in something has to be proportional to the evidence favoring such belief."
