Title: A surprisingly naive effort
Review: In nearly every previous book - from "The Andromeda Strain" to "Jurassic Park" - Crichton has struck me as being a true erudite... a learned man. And yet, in this book I was shocked, quite frankly, by how one-sided his argument was AGAINST the theory of global warming. As a trained physician with a clear curiosity about all things science, Crichton seems to have put forward a work of fiction based on fictional evidence. I've always enjoyed turning to his books for their escapist qualities that seemed grounded in the latest thinking. It's just too bad he's abandoned his roots.
