nature
A polemic against what he called fundamentalist materialism — the reflex that dismisses anomalous data before examining it. Argued with the same weapons he used on the credulous.

It keeps him honest. Wilson attacks dogmatic scepticism here exactly as he attacks dogmatic belief elsewhere; the target is certainty, not any particular content.
