The most interesting detective story to appear this summer. Michael Morgan, University College, London, Education, August 1995 by far the most detailed and objective ... this examination of the available evidence must surely be accepted as scrupulously fair and lucidly presented Times Higher Education Supplement the authors all find something quite interesting to say ... The book ... is fairly and indeed beautifully written. Mackintosh's academic whodunit marks a further step towards Burt's rehabilitation. Chris Brand, Nature by far the most detailed and objective ... this examination of the available evidence must surely be accepted as scrupulously fair and lucidly presented Times Higher Education Supplement Here, the eminent learning theorist Nicholas Mackintosh leads a hand-picked team of scholars in a reexamination of Burt's character and figurework. The book as a whole is fairly and indeed beautifully written. Mackintosh's academic whodunit marks a further step towards Burt's rehabilitation. Chris Brand, University of Edinburgh, Nature, Vol. 377, October 1995 This book reveals much about the passions of psychologists and is surprisingly amusing. David Cohen, New Scientist, September 1995 provides some ammunition for those who come down on the framed side of the debate Times Literary Supplement This book presents an excellent text ... stage in the saga ... the sum of the parts is a rich feast ... Here is a fascinating story, and each chapter in its different way provides a thoroughly good read. I recommend this book as essential reading to all educational psychologists and indeed to psychologists in general. Professor Geoff Lindsay, University of Warwick, Educational Psychology in Practice, Vol. 1, No. 3, October 1996
