Title: Splendid, with one serious flaw.
Review: The only lapse in Windschuttle's lancing of the postmodern boil is in the later chapters. Therein he makes the same mistake as his anti-rational subjects: he confuses the principle of uncertainty in the physical sciences (as described by Popper)with the relativism which has infected the social sciences.Windschuttle demonstrates the power of falsification throughout his criticisms of postmodern pseudo-scholarship. Inconvenient specifics demolish bogus generalizations. Popper's insistance on the primacy of disproof does NOT imply that truth does not exist, only that it cannot be extracted in perfect completeness, like Athena from the head of Zeus.
