Here's the first review of Saving Gaia. The reviewer says I have passionate anger against the greedy fools fucking up the planet. Teaching biology for decades will do that to you. Religion, Big Business and the Government are leading mankind into an abyss and it's heartbreaking.
Book Review
A marvelous romp through the ages with a guy who was a hippie in his youth, and a hippie still. Such passionate anger against the greedies and know nothings trashing our planet---endangering life on this beautiful world. He has a strong grasp of how historically we have arrived at this dangerous time for our planet---religion, stupidity, authoritarianism and greed being up there.. The book is full of factoids new to me. Like did you know that Joseph Goebbels had a PhD in philosophy? A passionate, very personal expression of a thoughtful, passionate man.

If you're not familiar check him out on YouTube. He's referring to my graduation ceremony when he and half the class walked out on the speech by the Secretary of Defense.
Thanks, Rich for jogging my memory of the bad old days of the Vietnam War-- must say I was pleased by my antiwar activism and leading the peaceful protest against McNamara at the at the NYU graduation – – giving him an honorary degree! I'm eager to read your book, but I am traveling in Poland and Sicily until early June when I get home and I will read it and send you feedback.

Well done! I see it's offered new for $10 and used "from $18" .
A predatory trader, I presume.

That's Amazon. I had nothing to do with it.
