Title: Ridiculous action, great message
Review: Typical of Crichton, this book uses poorly developed, unrealistic characters (women with advanced degrees who date movie stars, act too manly, survive being struck by lightning and drowning, never cry, etc.) to serve up an ingenious plot based in cutting edge science technology. The agenda is real, but probably accurate. Modern day environmentalism is a scam. It is lawfirms seeking deep pockets, anti-capitalist politicians, extremists immorally doing the dirty work, empty-headed celebrities latching on to "causes" to validate their good fortune, duped and used philanthropists, scientist/professors in need of grant money, media bias and public brainwashing. The large amount of hysterical, venomous negative reviews here and elsewhere is evidence of the desperation to keep this kind of truth from becoming widely known. But all the science in the book is fair, thorough, debated, and logical. This book shows that the truth is more important than good intentions.
