I still have Lincoln’s May 8, 1995, letter to Oxford University Press, which evaluated the submission that became my first book, Manufacturing Religion. He concludes that letter to the editor by stating the following in a postscript (and I quote this with Lincoln’s permission): As you probably remember, it’s my standard practice to waive confidentiality, given my view that critical opinions are not detachable from the persons who offer them, not from the positions those people occupy and the life histories they have traversed. Those called upon to respond can do so more knowledgeably when they know from whence the criticisms originate, so that they engage human beings and not just words on paper.
