Facts Not Fear is an excellent book for both parents and educators alike. It is very refreshing to see the authors use scientific facts to explain and explore environmental issues, instead of "gloom and doom"scare tactics which are so prevalent in or childrens texts. Facts Not Fear is essential reading for virtually everyone, because it offers a balanced perspective on a variety of environmental subjects, from natural resoures to global warming. READ THIS BOOK TODAY!
Format:Taschenbuch
This book started out with good intentions. Environmentalists often sensationalize points to increase concern for a particular aspect of environmental policy. They often blow things out of proportion in order to make people believe and act on their particular crusade. However, this book goes too far. It causes a reader to believe that there isn't an environmental problem in the world today and that we as a people are headed down a bright environmental future. To back up its claims, the book uses questionable "experts" who don't know the complete implications of the problems they review. The book focuses on a very small part of an environmental concern and shows how it is not a problem and doesn't encompass the complete story often giving people false impressions or even incorrect conclusions. This book even tries to use debates about particular actions between scientists as proof that certain environmental problems aren't really occurring. I'm a biologist who believes that environmentalists need to be tempered a little, but this book tries to lead people to believe that the environment is not in trouble and that we are making satisfactory progress towards correcting mistakes; nothing could be farther from the truth.

The title sounds great, but this book is an unbridled assault on critical thought and apology for powerful industrial interests. Its production was supported by extreme right-wing think tanks.
It is certainly true that there are radical extremists in the environmental movement who will use certain tactics to deliver their messages. But make no mistake - this is not a balanced book, nor does it encourage 'critical thought'. It uses the same tactics - ignoring evidence contrary to your interests, pumping up contrarian science, dismissing as 'insignificant' that which is not. It argues that there is NOTHING wrong with our environment - no hole in the ozone, no risk from global warming, no problem with persistent toxics.
You may wish to buy it, if only as an example of how to select the few specific pieces information that support an argument while ignoring the vast body of information that contradicts it.
