my book Corrupted Science re-reviewed

That nice man Jeff VanderMeer has posted a review of my book Corrupted Science on his blog "Ecstatic Days". In part he says:

As a writer and a reviewer, I sometimes come across a book that hasn’t gotten enough attention but seems to deserve that attention not just for its quality, but for its relevance. Corrupted Science by John Grant is one of these books. . . . This isn’t just a wonderfully written and relevant book—it’s also a beautiful little hardcover, lovingly put together . . .

One of the oddities about Corrupted Science is that I, too, in my modest way thought it might be an important book. So did the UK publisher. So even did the book's designer, who sent me a string of e-mails spelling out how much he hoped people would read the book and get the message. Likewise the book's UK publicist. Unfortunately, the book's US distributor decided it'd be best marketed into the wacky-science-fun-for-kids market. Ya know, alongside books like The God Delusion and The Republican War on Science and Toys You Can Make in Your Own Back Yard. Somewhere out there you'll see a lot of very confused kids.
