Reviews

.,. a fascinating exploration....presentation is balanced, serving the student well by illustrating historical and current scientific outlook, debunking myths, and updating current thought....Although earmarked for the reference section in many college and university libraries, placing this book in public and high school libraries in both the reference and circulating collections will allow use for homework assignments as well as generic reading....an outstanding reference resource, it is amazingly entertaining. -VOYA
