## Gell-Man Amnesia Effect
|
|
|
|
The [Gell-Mann amnesia effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Crichton#%22Gell-Mann_amnesia_effect%22)
|
|
may explain my tendency to rave about literature on other disciplines.
|
|
I am a bitter detractor of Mike Holt,
|
|
(who may be the only thing approaching a published researcher in our shared fields[^1])
|
|
but I'm quick to ignore typos and other presentation issues
|
|
which may be indicative of low rigor
|
|
in books and articles for adjacent fields.
|
|
|
|
[^1]: Those being the electrical trade (as practiced by electricians)
|
|
and electrical estimating.
