...many people will cite Emmerich's account--one published in Harvard's newspaper of record--as an example of sociobiological sexism? The very least Emmerich owes DeVore is a retraction and a deep, believable apology. Much more appropriate would be a reprinting of DeVore's full speech, or at least as much as can fit onto page...

No source is too doubtful or irrelevant to cite, provided it can somehow be mobilized into an attack on the target. "It is known," Mander states ominously, "that light affects the testicular growth of sparrows." The author writes with such urgency that simple distinctions get trampled: "As you may have noticed, a lot of people seem to be going crazy these days. People...
