Title: scientific hubris
Product review: When a brilliant scientist steadfastly clings to an increasingly untenable viewpoint, at some point legitimate questions can be raised about his judgement and objectivity. While it is always possible that one individual can be right even though he disagrees with most other scientists in the field, the likelihood of this becomes progressively smaller the more time goes by and other scientists remain unconvinced. Despite what some people would like to believe, there is no great incentive for "mainstream" scientists to conceal the truth. On the contrary, the greatest rewards in science go to those who reveal the truth. One suspects that an individual like Peter Duesberg is hopelessly deluded by the dream that someday he will lionized as the great keeper of the truth about AIDS and cancer. Unfortunately for him, it is not to be.
