Sources[edit]

Where are the sources for this article? And where is the source that says their findings are scientific? Noirtist (talk) 12:56, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The book also hardly seems notable. Noirtist (talk) 13:01, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Based upon your edit history of trying to censor this book and all other books and sources critical of the lunatic fringe topics you write quite biased content in favor of, your opinion that it doesn't seem notable does not seem to be made in good faith.

Reviews[edit]

I've found two excerpts from reviews here: http://www.abc-clio.com/products/overview.aspx?productid=108860 They are from "American Reference Books Annual" and "Against the Grain". Verbal chat 08:15, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cleaning up and expanding this page[edit]

I plan to tidy up and expand this page substantially in the next few weeks. I'll check citations etc and hope that if anyone has material to add that they will leave it here for me. I love a good skeptical dictionary and hope this will eventually promote Micheal's book to wider audience. Cheers all!TedDougal'n'Jack (talk) 08:59, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have now expanded this but I had a little formatting difficulty at the bottom, where the references don't list under the heading but are beneath the 'Pseudoscience' box. Any help appreciated!TedDougal'n'Jack (talk) 06:54, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That little bit of formatting has been fixed now, thanks to another editor. Teamwork: gotta love it!TedDougal'n'Jack (talk) 05:39, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
