More information about the book:

On Disinformation: How to Fight for Truth and Protect Democracy is a powerful, pocket-sized citizen’s guide on how to fight back against the disinformation campaigns that are imperiling American democracy. In On Disinformation, Lee McIntyre shows how the war on facts began, and how ordinary citizens can fight back against the scourge of disinformation that is now threatening the very fabric of our society. Drawing on his twenty years of experience as a scholar of science denial, McIntyre explains how autocrats wield disinformation to manipulate a populace and deny obvious realities, why the best way to combat disinformation is to disrupt its spread, and most importantly, how we can win the war on truth.
