Rezensionen

"Geoffrey Kabat's writing, as usual, is phenomenally clear and expressive. His logical cadences are both air-tight and a pleasure to read. His insights into the workings and mis-workings of science, the sociology of science, and the interplay of personalities and organizations are penetrating and precise, and, above all original." - Steven D. Stellman, Columbia University
