Check out some back issues of _The Sceptical Inquirer_. I read an
article about two years ago, also written by Carl Sagan, that utterly
destroys Velikovsky.
It really shocked my that Sagan spent the amount of time he did in order
to rebuke Velikovsky. As a matter of fact, I can't understand why
anybody would want to invest time and effort in dealing with such obvious
nonsense.
