Dear Santa...

Dear Santa -

You know that quad core 64-bit Pentium with 8 gigs of RAM and a 400G hard drive I asked for? Yeah, with the quad firewire interface and twin 27 inch monitors. That's the one.

Nevermind... Could I have one of these instead?

... The book is worth attention for only two reasons: (1) it attacks
attempts to expose sham paranormal studies; and (2) it is very well and
plausibly written and so rather harder to dismiss or refute by simple
jeering.
