Negative Positive
Title: If I had read pages 38-41...
Review: Does it contain lots of useful information? Yes. Would I have bought it had I read pages 38-41? Absolutely not. "The era of optimism came to an abrupt and crashing halt with the publication of...Rachel Carson's Silent Spring...the book was not a scientifically sound publication... We could not produce enough food to feed the people of the world without these chemicals." And so on. (Of course, people were not producing food before the chemical companies developed their left over chemical weapons into 'fertilizers'.) As any one can guess, I use organic methods. I have many non-organic gardening books among more than 100 titles but until this one I had not read such nonsense. By the way, before I moved to my current home, I grew raspberries in the shade and got tons of fruits.
Is the review positive or negative?
