Simply Awful

What can I say about this self-aggrandizing book? It demonizes the very thing our food supply is dependent on, and while it contributes to the warming (ncessesitating more of its use), it fails to offer real solutions or alternatives - author is capitalizing on their own folly. Buyer beware - this book sucks!
