Nuclear book

The main point is to add this new book. The rest I think is interesting but maybe a bit 'controversial'? But then these topics are is controversial. Gemtpm (talk) 20:26, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Select reviews

It's unclear Wikipedia should be used to catalog every book review by Cohen. Recommend parring back to 4 or 5 of the most important and then linking to a complete list of reviews off-site. Also, this article has low citations, it needs more reviews about Cohen's books, not reviews by Cohen, to establish notability per WP:AUTHOR #3. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 07:50, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge from Paradigm Shift: How Expert Opinions Keep Changing on Life, the Universe and Everything

The book article appears to have been created by an associate of the author, whose other edits reveal a likely COI via the magazine Cohen edits. This article fails to establish the importance of the topic: a couple of short reviews are cited but nothing weighty. The book looks like just another post-modernist Kuhn warmover, and the sources fail to establish that it is anything else. Guy (Help!) 17:08, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
