I haven't read the book, but Betty Boop has. Perhaps she'd care to respond.

Not much to say here. Yockey mentions Adami on page 168 but mainly to dismiss his theory of complexity that Yockey evidently thinks is inferior to his own. It seems Yockey prefers the Kolmogorov/Chaitin algorithmic ("least description") type. I gather Yockey thinks that the latter definition of complexity fits better with the Shannon communication model.

But Adami is certainly right about the book having typo problems. As to whether the book has been adequately peer reviewed: I imagine that a highly reputable publisher like Cambridge University Press would have seen to this.

I gather the two gentlemen have strong differences of opinion. So what else is new?
