Thanks for the articles. Yes, I've read "most" of Schermer's book, but I have not made it to any critique of Tipler. Perhaps you know that Tipler is Roger Penrose's former student and, as I understand it, is considered a peer of Penrose and Hawking. By the way, I've read several books that you've recommended on your web site including "The Demon Haunted World" and "Why People Believe Wierd Things." As usual, they've all been reliably worthwhile. Thanks for the insight.
>>I don't remember if Shermer's book deals with this book in particular or if it is a similar book by a similar (or the same?) author that he goes over, but you may want to check that out too.
