I am fortunate that nearly all the Q&A guests really seem to take the opportunity to talk about their books seriously. I am far from well read on the topics covered in this one, but I did get the impression that his colleagues might challenge some of his views!DW@CWBAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00018056113264346047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16471073.post-65366937884734405242017-10-02T11:17:13.199-07:002017-10-02T11:17:13.199-07:00Drew: Interesting and erudite interview.

Seems like overstatement to me. <br /><br />John Sinclair John Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891366329246256570noreply@blogger.com
