LOMBORG FLAP reported in Copenhagen Post: cphpost.periskop.dk Lomborg censured by research committees -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. januar 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The three joint committees issued their verdict on Lomborg on Tuesday, characterizing the best-selling book as being 'in conflict with normal scientific procedure' and blatantly one-sided, as well as short on source material. Brydensholt said that Lomborg's book should not have been called a research work -despite its 1800 footnotes- but rather a work of debate, which would have been acceptable under current research norms and standards. "Lomborg discusses a series of disciplines without having any expertise in these areas… We call this poor quality science, but we have no proof that Lomborg deliberately tried to mislead the public, politicians, or others," Brydensholt said yesterday. The committees considered only the scientific aspects of Lomborg's book, not the environmental issues it raised, after receiving formal complaints about the work.
