In Defense Of Common Sense: John Horgan, author of The End of Science, and feisty and provocative as ever, is ready for combat with scientists. Quote: "All these theories are preposterous, but that's not my problem with them. My problem is that no conceivable experiment can confirm the theories, as most proponents reluctantly acknowledge. The strings (or membranes, or whatever) are too small to be discerned by any buildable instrument, and the parallel universes are too distant. Common sense thus persuades me that these avenues of speculation will turn out to be dead ends." Link
