More curious facts about peer-reviewed books, if the Dover testimony of the IDers is to be believed, is that:

a. The author is sometimes the reviewer of his own work.

b. Failing (a) if a reviewer reviews a portion of the book negatively, you just go and ask another reviewer.

c. The review process apparently consists not of the question, "Is this work valid science?", but "Will this book find a ready market?"
