The new review

A new review of The Hockey Stick Illusion has appeared at the Texas GOPVote blog:

With the recent news of a leading scientist being gagged from reporting his finding and the recent attempt by many in the climatologists' circle to destroy the reputation of those who disagree with their finds, Andrew Montford’s The Hockey Stick Illusion is worth reading, simply to understand the mindset of the climate alarmists and how far they are willing to go. This book reads like a mystery as opposed to science as Montford exposes how a major study, declared as the silver bullet for proof of man-made climate change, proved to be wrong and how much of the scientific establishment went out of its way to defend what they should have condemned.

I'll try to get "The Hockey Stick Illusion" added to my local library, as they have recently acquired Mann's version, which I'm pleased to report has been sitting on the shelf for weeks.

"The Hockey Stick Illusion" was— without question— the most important book I've read this century.

This excellent text is what stimulated my interest in the topic. Since Mr Connolley (rather inexplicably) has started visiting here I might add the publication of HSI led to an incredibly rich resource for professional psychologists in the pages of Wikipedia. I recommend the archives to students who want to understand something about the corruption of science.

@ Mikky - what section is Mann's version under ? not spotted it in mine, but have probably been looking in the wrong section.

ps - I requested THSI when the Bish released it & it now sits in Science/Earth section.
