I know what you mean, Pat.  I read the bibliography of a book on
physics once, and I found it very enlightening.  I recommend it as a
good learning tool on physics.  I don't know squat about physics
myself, but I could tell that all of the scientists in the
bibliography were very qualified.  I read things in this bibliography
that made me think that Einstein may well have been wrong in many
places and had no talent!  The most interesting thing I learned
reading this bibliography is that it isn't absolutely necessary to
read a book before recommending it... and that people who insist
otherwise are ruled more by stupidity than by reason!
