strange to hear negative commentary.
I've only heard positive things about this and his other books. the people were criminologist professors and grad students, and they are fairly on top of how to tell fact from fiction. but I haven't read the book myself, so I don't have a perspective on it myself, other than to say I planned to read it someday (and Angels and Demons was recommended to me, as well).
