Something short and probably not very sweet: https://lucibee.wordpress.com/2022/05/30/smc-uncritically-reinforces-the-orthodoxy/
Having now finished the book, I don't think it's anything like that really. It's much more mundane. And there's also somewhat of a conflict, in...
Now that's unfair. I don't doubt that she wrote it - but as there is no editor mentioned, I expect he fulfilled that role. It's a thankless task!
Reviews are up.
In preparation for my blog post, I also came across this ME Association post from 7 years ago, which might be of interest to those preparing...
OK. Just had this from Amazon: I haven't tried to resubmit, and I can't access it to edit it. The review is not available to me at all. This is...
Amazon get millions upon millions of reviews a day. There aren't enough human eyes to review them all, so they use algorithms to screen out bots....
Still no change. I tried to query it with an Amazon chatbot yesterday. They'd said they'd let me know what was going on, but I still haven't heard...
Also, last day of the Hay Festival [eta: 5 June]. https://www.hayfestival.com/p-19079-fiona-fox-talks-to-marcus-du-sautoy.aspx I won't be going,...

The paragraph on SW brings up death threats, threatening calls, panic buttons, x-ray machines for checking post, and Mengele ("especially hurtful"...
I think what she is trying to say, is that if they don't do anything about ME activism, it will spread to all sorts of other areas. Slippery...
"horribly naive" springs to mind - https://deadlinescotland.wordpress.com/2010/10/14/ex-labour-mps-sick-joke-left-office-manager-sick-with-stress/...
That was quite interesting, because it is about Amy Maxmen's piece here: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-017-08965-0 SMC don't get to...
The OH came up with a good one: Simon's Media Chums
Yes, I saw that - via @JohnTheJack 's blog. I wouldn't read too much into it. I suspect it's written before her trip. I don't think she thought...
She's defo describing her own experience. She says she had some kind of post-infection fatigue after a trip to Zaire in her thirties. Spent weeks...
The most fascinating thing about this book is that it does not go "beyond the hype" at all. It is *all* hype. There is no examination of the...
She's got that covered. There's a whole section on that.
