Neuroreality I

Note From the Editor-in-Chief

“…As the quintessential skeptic, Landau took up the task of confronting ''conventional wisdom'' in a series of ''Neuromythology'' [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] articles published in Neurology (the official organ of the American Academy of Neurology), which were then reprinted in book form. 29,30 The Journal of Child Neurology has also often championed controversial issues, [31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48] such as the valuation of published materials, peer review, ethics in publishing, and professional witness testimony, with some of these articles even being penned by Landau. [46][47][48] Thus, it seemed appropriate to publish this provocative critique by Landau 49 in the same issue as an article providing an analysis of the peer review process in neurology.…”
