lengthly critique of Velikovsky's scholarship HERE:

http://www.skeptica.dk/arkiv_us/pa_us002.htm

Apparently, Velikovsky massaged quotes, ignored contradictory material in sources, and even quoted out-of-context to generate support for his theories. The author is careful to point out that he doesn't think Velikovsky did this intentionally, i.e., he was not trying to be deceitful, but that his lack of training as a scientist lead to his unintentional but none-the-less improper use of sources.
