I haven’t read this book, and its “methodical” examination of “a wealth of empirical data”. It seems to go against other research that shows rape is underreported rather than overreported. Obviously it is eagerly seized on as Gospel truth by Mac Donald.
Underreporting of rape and a high ratio of false reports are not mutually exclusive. For a dispassionate explanation, see http://volokh.com/posts/1113597035.shtml. It’s a simple concept.
