If you think I am sometimes sharp with my criticism you should reas Clark Glymour's scathing review of Rani Lill Anjum and Stephen Mumford's Causation in Science and the Methods of Scientific Discovery to see how it's really done. Clark Glymour, just to be clear, is the real deal - he has a long and well-regarded history in the field. And his review describes what to me sounds like a first-year political science student's misunderstanding of scientific method. So we can look forward to another generation of retorts like "correlation is not causation" and other pseudocriticism. And that, I suggest, is who this book is written for.
