Book Review, © Copyright 1997, Jim Loy
Martin Gardner is most famous for his books and articles on mathematical games and puzzles. But, he is also very famous for his books and articles debunking pseudoscience. These books are mostly about pseudoscience. And they are very good.
Some of the topics of these books: L. Ron Hubbard (Dianetics), Immanuel Velikovsky (Worlds in Collision), ESP, Uri Geller, UFO's, and many other topics. I wanted to list them all here, but the list is too long for my purposes. So, just read the books yourself.
