About This Item
W. W. Norton & Company, 2000. Hardcover. Like New/Very Good+. 6x1x9. A master debunker of scientific fraud and psuedo-science takes on numerology, Freud's dream theory, reflexology, and the Heaven's Gate cult, among other assaults on reason and rational thought. Scientific gadfly Martin Gardner asks the questions that make believers of all types cringe. Did Adam and Eve Have Navels? is one such example and is the title and lead essay from this collection of his columns from Skeptical Inquirer. While many scientifically minded people find the fundamentalist skepticism of Gardner, the Amazing Randi, and their ilk to be a bit straining, the skeptics' voices are relatively quiet compared with the hordes of pseudo- and anti-scientific hucksters scoring political points and big bucks by exploiting ignorance and credulity.
