review 1: Though a bit preachy (and he was preaching to the choir here!) I found the statistics in this book, even taken with a grain of salt, to be absolutely astounding. I had to return it before I was all the way done :( I can't imagine anyone disputing the arguments in this book - but it happens every day in US politics. We're shooting ourselves in the foot but not doing anything - but hopefully the huge cost of super storms like Sandy will change some people's thinking.
review 2: I agree entirely with the sentiment of this book, and it contains some good points. But it's simply not that well written, and far too slanted in its approach for me to rate it very highly. It also approaches a lot of deep, fascinating topics in a fairly shallow manner. Anyone who agrees... more with the author is likely to enjoy the book, but anyone who disagrees is simply going to throw it out the window, defeating the purpose of authoring such a work. less
