Title: I can barely stand it!
Review: In general, I find the book mostly readable. The topic is interesting and the presentation is enjoyable - when the author sticks to the facts. But having read roughly 3/4 of it so far, I find myself contantly fighting the urge to just dump it in the trash in response to the sniveling diatribes that crop up every other page. According to the author, we humans should spend our lives feeling totally guilty simply because we exist and have spent that existence screwing up the planet in political power struggles, profit mongering, and general poor behavior. It's a wonder we even bother to take time out from our well-deserved self-flagellations to attempt to educate ourselves with a book about the world around us. Even when expounding on world efforts to bring CFC emmisions under control, the author whines, "We are just left to wonder if it is too little, too late".I cringe at what might await in his book about the Bible! I think I'll pass.
