Journalists are good at commenting.

Not the ones covering science!

all the more shocking how hard SW came down on her for criticising PACE.

His critiques involved an article he was sent to peer-review, not the book itself. She decided to make changes to the chapter in the book after the contention over the article heated up.

I didn't say their comments were always how one would like, but we do have one journalist in our midst who seems pretty on the ball!

Thank you, @dave30th for that thoughtful and informative review.

Thanks. I tried hard to be fair but firm.

Fair point,
. Although I have to admit that I think of Dave as more of a scientist than journalist, but that might be because of his academic position and rigour. We need more journalists like that!
