Flim-Flam!: Psychics, ESP, Unicorns, and Other Delusions

i couldn't even finish it. i hated randi's voice in it and although i have a lot of respect for his dedication to debunking things like these, he came off very unnecessarily aggressive. and you would think that no one actually believes in psychics these days and if they do then they're not really putting anyone in danger are they? that was just kind of my mindset throughout the bit that i did read. and i hate that this book can be used in a way that it wasn't meant to be used; to discredit legitimate sources in order to push an agenda of more conspiracies (yes i am speaking from personal experience here), the opposite of what it was meant to do. also the style it's written in is so boring at time i couldn't even get through a paragraph without zoning out. it moves so slowly and it's written in such a hostile way that 1) it damages the ethos of the writer and 2) makes it way less accessible to readers in that it's hard to actually enjoy it. so yeah in short i hated it but i'm rating it two stars because i have respect for the man for being dedicated to researching this and educating people who need it about the topic.
