Description:

Did Adam and Eve Have Navels? is Martin Gardner's take on some questionable theories. He calls it pseudo-science, and it includes many new age and alternative therapies. Many of the topics are amusing and non-threatening but not all. His skeptical view is both proactive and entertaining.
