Title: thought provoking fact based fiction...
Review: Interesting book but I am not suprised by what Crichton found in his three years of research. My wife worked for a nationally recognised 'scientist' before we were married and had told me that he regularly disregarded and discarded findings in his research that did not support his 'views', and that his results always seemed to find new questions that would justify new research.The one couple in our circle of friends who are both 'professional greens' (paychecks from environmental organisations) become absolutely frothy at the mouth at the mention of this book. They insist 'it's all not true'. When I asked them to specify a particular part that's untrue they seem utterly incapable of rational discourse continueing with shouts of 'all of it, all of it! Crichton's sold out! Open your mind, he's sold out!' Personally I'm glad they set me straight. For a second I thought they were the one's with the closed mind....
