		Robert L. Park is a professor of physics at the University of Maryland, College Park.

	CSISS Classics - Robert Park and Ernest Burgess: Urban Ecology Studies, 1925
		Park and Burgess suggested that the struggle for scarce urban resources, especially land, led to competition between groups and ultimately to the division of the urban space into distinctive ecological niches or "natural areas" in which people shared similar social characteristics because they were subject to the same ecological pressures.
		As sociologists, Park and Burgess, along with their students, used concentric zone theory extensively to explain the existence of social problems such as unemployment and crime in certain districts of Chicago.
		In particular, Park and Burgess' search for "natural" or "organic" process was criticized as a superficial undertaking that neglected both the social and cultural dimensions of urban life and the political-economic impact of industrialization on urban geography.

	Robert E. Park
		Park emphasized the importance of empirical evaluation of social questions and warned against the imposition of moral judgments.
		Robert Park began his career as a reporter for newspapers in Minneapolis, Detroit, Denver, New York, and Chicago, an encounter with journalism that influenced his later work in sociology.

Washington at the Tuskegee Institute, remained an important part of his life as a teacher and researcher at Chicago.

	Howard Odum: American Sociology: Robert E. Park (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Park, the fifteenth president of the American Sociological Society for 1925, followed the earlier pattern of coming to sociology relatively late in life and of living and working actively throughout a long life, in his case a span of eighty years.

		Park was author of Introduction to the Science of Sociology (with E. Burgess), 1921; Old World Traits Transplanted (with Herbert A. Miller), 1921; The Immigrant Press and Its Control, 1922; The City—Suggestions for the Study of Human Nature in the Urban Environment, 1925; and the editor of An Outline of the Principles of Sociology, 1939.

		Park shows why a "disproportionate share of the science seen by the public is flawed" (because shaky science is more likely to skip past peer review and head straight for the media), and he gives a good tour of recent highlights in Voodoo.
		Park is less forgiving of scientists (especially Edward Teller) when he thinks they've fallen down on the job, a job that should include helping the public separate the scientific wheat from the voodoo chaff.
		Park dismisses it because, as he states, the National Academy of Sciences undertook a complete review of all of the literature on the subject going back 130 years, and could find no scientific justification for its existence in the research that was studied.

	Review of Robert Park's Voodoo Science
		Park is aware of this, so he needs to discredit the work of Jacques Benveniste, whose research shows that molecules are not needed for pharmacological action.
		Park's statement to the contrary, as inconspicuous as he makes it, is an extraordinary claim of the highest order, but he gives no justification for it.
		Park randomly lumps together genuine scientific anomalies with obvious examples of fraud and charlatanism to produce a deceitful mix that will probably convince most readers that some of the most exciting scientific discoveries of the 20th century are fraudulent.

		Park next takes on "The Belief Gene," the concept that we are all equipped to lend credence to an idea that has once captured our attention.
		Park closes by taking on Deepak Chopra and other "new age" mysticisms in "How Strange is the Universe?" New age philosophies, "in which ancient superstitions reappear as pseudoscience," take religious or quasi-religious concepts and recast them as quantum physics or chaos theory.
		Instead, Park uses his examples judiciously, to illustrate the ways in which we come to be duped by the mere flavor of science, even where the substance is obviously flimsy; and how wanting to believe feeds our credulous acceptance of claims that are purely voodoo.
