COMING IN early August: A new book by UW-Madison journalism Professor Deborah Blum.
Blum’s last, 2003’s “Love at Goon Park,” about the late UW Professor Harry Harlow and his research with monkeys on the importance of touch and love on development, received both critical raves and movie interest.
The new book, “Ghost Hunters,” tells the intriguing tale of William James, brother of famed novelist Henry James, and William’s decision, at the close of the 19th century, to risk his worldwide reputation as a doctor and scientist in an attempt to prove there is life after death.
