Nature (London), 1989. 340(6234): p. 525 Well, it was more a report on Lewis' own work. It was a pretty good paper except of the conclusion. I learned a lot from it. It had a lot of valid information about what can go wrong with calorimetry. I can't upload it, but I wrote about it here, and you can get the gist of it: http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/RothwellJhownaturer.pdf > A second review was produced in 1991 (W. N.
