This is another one of those “preaching to the choir” books; the people who need to read it are unlikely to do so. However, as a proud member of the choir I, of course, read the book cover to cover in no time.

The entire thing is disturbing and sets up a huge, blinking, neon “HUBRIS” sign for the human race. How could we possibly ever think it’s OK to do the things reported in this book? Oh right: capitalism.

So, yes, I enjoyed the book (if “enjoy” is the right word for a book about a species poisoning itself). It made me want to spend the rest of my life nude, but it was still a good and worthwhile read.
