Worth Reading!
I liked several things about this book. The author presents many of the most common reasoning mistakes that people make. He also writes intelligently and critically about the arguments of others without attacking them personally. And he shares information that he's gained by being on the "front line" in arguments with creationists, deniers of the Holocaust, and others. This book did not come from "Ivory Tower" mental gymnastics. Shermer keeps the book interesting.I was disappointed with the book's lack of breadth. The title belies the book's content. Much of it focuses on creationism and the denial of the Holocaust. I hope that Shermer follows this one with a book that addresses a wider variety of topics.Overall, I enjoyed reading this book.
