Martin Gardner


One of the treuly hoopiest froodz in the univers!!! For many years
he edited (ie, he WAS) the Scientific American column "Mathematical
Games". He is the author of the critically acclaimed (just love 
being able to use that phrase, and really know that it really
applies!!) 
               FADS AND FALACIES IN THE NAME OF SCIENCE

I can only think that this book inspired many of us (ahem) skeptics
the world over (worlds?). His insight, and wisdom are also beautifully
illustrated in two delightful books"

   Ah Ha insight 
&
   ??? name???
