ISBN10: 0393322386, ISBN13: 9780393322385, [publisher: WW Norton & Co, New York] Softcover Paperback. Martin Gardner is perhaps the wittiest, most devastating unmasker of scientific fraud and intellectual chicanery of our time. Here he muses on topics as diverse as numerology, New Age anthropology, and the late Senator Claiborne Pell's obsession with UFOs, as he mines Americans' seemingly inexhaustible appetite for bad science. Gardner's funny, brilliantly unsettling expos? of reflexology and urine therapy should be required reading for anyone interested in "alternative" medicine. In a world increasingly tilted toward superstition, Did Adam and Eve Have Navels? will give those of us who prize logic and common sense immense solace and inspiration. "[Gardner] zaps his targets with laserlike precision and wit."Entertainment Weekly Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
