thread_title:  Missing Biographical Details 

message: The section on criticisms seems very poorly informed. Are no readers aware of the horror Rhine experienced when he discovered the cheating of Levy? This is a well-documented case and seems quite inconsistent with the implications of what is written in the section headed "Criticisms". There certainly have been criticisms of Rhine - from those who consider Zener cards too dry, or who long for parapsychology to get ready for "The Big Stuff", but I would like to see more informed section.
