“Superb scholarship in an easy to read format. The author, Jennifer Hecht, is fully capable of recapitulating the salient pericopes.”

People: is this postmodernism in action? Are these folk actually among us.
Is Alan Sokal aware of this tome?

You can hear an interview with the author on the Skepticality podcast: Interview: Jennifer Michael Hecht (Doubt) (http://skepticality.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=11202#)
Synopsis:
We discuss our new website, Swoopy covers the news, and we have an incredible discussion with Jennifer Michael Hecht. Author of the book 'Doubt: A history'. We talk about how doubt and skepticism has existed throughout known history, and how is has been viewed over time. An interesting discussion about religion, doubt, skepticism, and humanist views.

She is a wonderful writer. Not only is the subject matter engaging, she's fun to read. There are only a few bumpy spots in this one, I've been recommending it all over the place.

Welcome to the forum, Ms. Hecht.

If I was about fifteen years younger, female, and had purple hair, I could see you making that mistake. In this case, however, I'm just a fan.:D

I really did like the book, though. No, really. lol.
