I believe that the language in the article is very biased. It sounds like an About Me written by the person. There's a fine line between talking about a person's significance and lauding his accomplishments, but I believe this is on the wrong side of the line.

How so? Are you really concerned about this or are you stating this due to your fundamental opposition to the ideas the author represents? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yeahok77 ( talk • contribs) 03:24, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
This page lacks objectivity, reading, as it does, as a praising biography of Carnes. While it is factually accurate, for the most part, it is incomplete. Characterizing him as a clinician, for example, is almost certainly misleading, at least as regards the sources of his income, most of which comes from books he has written and businesses he has created. Those businesses are clinical in nature, but a clinician makes her/his income primarily from providing clinical services; Carnes's income comes from his entrepreneurship. In this regard, it seems inaccurate to refer to him a clinician without clarifying his relationship to the businesses he has created.
