If you’ve already decided which side to argue for, the work of rationality is done within you, whether well or poorly. But how can you, yourself, decide which side to argue? If choosing the wrong side is viscerally terrifying, even just a little viscerally terrifying, you’d best integrate all the evidence.
OK, here, now go take your own advice. As an academic imprint it’s pretty expensive, so if you can’t find it in your local university library I’ll snail-mail you some relevant extracts.
