Hill returns repeatedly to how expectations can guide observations, and how tempting it is to oversell evidence in the face of the struggle between an overwhelming desire to find the bird and the need to retain integrity and objectivity.
Editorial review on Amazon.com:
"Interesting and exciting. Hill's writing about the acceptance of the sightings and the evolution of the search from 'science' into 'birding' is important and should be widely disseminated. This significant original contribution adds to our understanding of the issues and the search."--Peter Mott, former President, New York City Audubon Society
Has anybody read the book and, if so, can they explain exactly what this means? Is Hill publicly stating that sightings don't qualify as science?
"the evolution of the search from 'science' into 'birding'"
Actually it was a case of Science refuted by birders
