Trade Review
"David Solway is a genius. He has things to say of the utmost significance. The Turtle Hypodermic of Sickenpods is a highly important and timely work that tackles the subject of computers and their impact on the learning process. These are wise, bold words whose sentiments desperately need to be heard and disseminated" W.J. Keith, emeritus, professor of English, University College, University of Toronto
