Stunning. Frightening, Very complete

Apart from a slight blur in Rowells vision where Greenpeace is concerned and the fact that he consideres the world, global examples notwithstanding, still to be mostly America, a frightening, stunning and utterly mesmerising book. Halfway through the reader has to take all the implications into account and then apply them to similar cases in one's own surrounding. Very accurately, it illustrates that obviously old tactics of repression do not work anymore, having been recognised to often for what they are, so new strategies are called for to hold us down where the enviroment is concerned. This book is a must for anyone interested in enviromentalism. For me, environmental journalist in the Netherlands,a small, very regulated country with a sickening economic drive, an oasis of recognition. compliments.
