News: UK University Supports “Middle Ages” Knowledge

After wandering through some science blogs I found this amusing website from University of Southampton and the recent PhDs awarded.

Name Date awarded Supervisor(s) Title of thesis
Pat Harris May 2007 Jackie Powell Applications of astrology to health psychology: psychological and astrological factors and fertility treatment outcome

 
I imagine we are talking the same astrology that’s been debunked so many times over so many years. So should we now take star sign reading in the local paper seriously. Or, perhaps do a PhD in the application of alchemy to modern wealth creation methods or to extend current mining practices!

Sorry back to the real world…
