    I am currently still reading it, nearly at the end. If no volunteers I will pass it on to my girlfriend to have a browse through

    *tumbleweed rolls by*

    Hopefully more people will want to read this now, if not then if you ended up with a copy feel free to pass it round to friends or your local charity shop

    Re: Book Swap Thread - 'Bad Science' - by Ben Goldacre - New readers needed!

    If there are no replies, I was thinking of donating it to the uni library, since they've only got one copy which is currently out on loan. Seems most of my family have already read it somehow, which surprised me.

    Else, if you prefer, I'll drop it in at a local charity shop.

    I read this book when it first hit the shelves of WhSmith Liverpool Street, a fantastic read which I thought was both funny and interesting. I hope Ben writes more books.

    To those who enjoyed this book, have you read others in a similar vein? - Not necessarilly science based but just a similar take on things... I'd like some more non-fiction choices!
