Negative Positive
Title: Good for a Laugh
Review: I decided I had better give this book a read after hearing all the buzz about it. I am convinced Bjorn Lomborg and Rush Limbaugh Must have gone to the same school of scientific obfuscation and unctuous disinformation. A middle school debate class could take this book apart with little effort. It proves a good case study for how to make a million pandering to eager (desperate) skeptics but for real "facts" look elsewhere. Even if you are skeptical of environmental science you can do a WHOLE lot better than this book.Now if you want a book that REALLY throws some light on the environmental debate over history look to "Ruin and Recovery" by Dave Dempsey. What I found so remarkable about his book was how anti conservationists and anti environmentalists have been making the same arguments for 200 years and how THEIR predictions not only prove untrue but often completely contrary.
Is the review positive or negative?
