Summary: Smart Reading
Comment: This is the perfect book to settle bets and arguments. There's no one who doesn't know exactly how he or she feels about every issue raised in this book, from capital punishment to homosexuality to abortion to intelligence tests. The problem is, almost everything we know about them turns out to be more about how we feel than about any objective reality. Goldberg doesn't tell you what to think, but he demands you be consistent and logical in whatever your position is. And reexamining those positions is both an education and, thanks to the humor in Goldberg's writing, enjoyable as well.

Summary: Fads and Fallacies in the Social Sciences
Comment: This book had me questioning many of my views on the "hot topics" presented and THAT is no easy task!
I found myself using every free moment to pick it up and find what "I KNEW to be the ONLY and correct opinions" on many of the issues needing additional thought and consideration on my part. This caught my husband's attention and he couldn't wait for me to put it down so he could read it. We've spent quite some time since discussing the issues therein.
Kudos to Professor Goldberg for an entertaining and thought provoking book!

Summary: If You Want To Know What You're Talking About
Comment: Steven Goldberg's tough no-nonsense intelligence takes on some of the pressing issues of the day, and we emerge with a new way of looking at them. You may not like his conclusions, but you will be stimulated and provoked. His highly accessible writing style is a pleasure to read. Do not read this book unless you are ready to be challenged by one of America's greatest debunkers of cant.
