Sceptical aphorisms

I tend to read skeptical literature with a certain lack of suspense. I always know how it is going to turn out. I wish more emphasis was placed on some unusual things that are true. (Al Seckel)

His research is fully supported by the National Institutes of Health and he serves on numerous national (US) and international AIDS prevention panels.

He is the Editor-in-Chief of the scholarly journal AIDS and Behavior, and is the author of a number of books, the latest being Denying AIDS: Conspiracy Theories, Pseudoscience and Human Tragedy. All royalties from Denying AIDS are donated for the purchase of HIV treatments for people in Africa.
