Bad Science by Ben Goldacre is the only science book I've convinced my non-scientist family to read. It drastically cut down on the number of phone calls I get about whether or not some Facebook-promoted scam is going to cure whatever ails them.
Is it the one by Ben Goldacre?
Yes, walk. This is the sort of idiocy that kills other people. And while you're walking, leave her a copy of Bad Science by Ben Goldacre and maybe she'll learn something useful. I highly recommend this book for people who obviously have no grasp on science or reality -- great read, written for laymen and explains exactly why people with beliefs like hers are complete quackjobs.
