"A highly polemical (and funny) work of criticism, Deloria pillories the contradictions of the scientific establishment. I'm sure that lots of scientists, and the non-scientifically-inclined, will have difficulty accepting all that Deloria argues. However, his analysis of the disrespect of Indian stories inherent in Western science is important and alone makes the book worthwhile."
"An academic he may be, but Mr. Deloria seems to think the practice of archaeology and perhaps science in general serves only to undermine American Indians' existence and culture. I can agree that archaeology in North America got off to a rocky start and understand why certain nations today might not hold archaeologists in high regard. But Deloria employs a certain kind of circular logic that really kept me from delving into his argument."
