Description: An important and well-argued call to reason by eminent scientists.
Review Quotes: This is a brilliant expose of the misanthropy, irrationality, and innumeracy that characterizes much of current debate on issues such as GM crops, vivisection, the regulation of science, and the appropriate response to global warming. It shows how suspicion of science - humankind's greatest collective achievement - is rooted in human self-hatred. What the book lacks in length, it makes up for in importance."
