What kind of a reputation does he have?

As I already said, he is a well-respected science author, who has been doing
excellent work in that field for decades.

We all become aware, as we grow older, that we always know less than we
imagine and I do not doubt that the same thing also applies to you.

No doubt. The difference here is that I'm not claiming to know more than
someone who has already proved himself to know quite a bit more than the
average human being.

All I can say is that the book in question, (that you have not read)
contains factual errors and bases it´s conclusions on false premises
and misunderstandings that modern research has since refuted.
He does not seem to have done a great deal of research on the subject
and just went off making wild guesses in quite a fanciful way.
