contents In his 1972 book Science At the Crossroads, Helbert Dingle attacked the consistency of special relativity through a fallacious argument championed by the crank community even to this day. Dingle's affair is a curious chapter in the history of physics and, more generally, science. We briefly review Dingle's case from a historical and didactic perspective.
