I don't know anything one way or another about the author, but his website lists him having a phd in biophysics from an actual, respectable research university (university of Guelph), so i'm not real sure how "anti-intellectual" pertains per se. I'm pretty sure i don't think he's right, but that's not at all the same thing.
