SIN has created its own book which came out in 2014. It's a great collection of essays looking at a whole range of subjects to be skeptical of. For example, Rebecca Bradley deals with "pseudoarcheology", whilst Caleb Lack writes about cognitive biases. Subjects from science denialism to groupthink, free will to the history of skepticism, are dealt with, with care and quality. The variety is a real joy. It would make a great Christmas present!
