Merchants of Despair Paperback – 31 December 2013

Zibrin adds some information to my perennial question of why Greens reject the most green power source, and why climate warming activists reject zero-carbon power sources.It also seems that the arguments leading to the ban on DDT were quickly known to be false, the ban leading to many million unnecessary deaths.This book should be read by anyone who cares for human flourishing.

Livre passionnant révèlant des faits que pour ma part j’ignorais complètement: ce sont pourtant des millions de personnes qui en ont été les victimes, il me semble dans une indifférence quasi totale. Toute personne s’interrogeant sur l’écologie devrait lire ce livre certes à charge mais très documenté, très complet, et dont la fibre humaniste me paraît des plus sincères.

Indispensable in understanding the development of so-called renewable energy.Were Zubrin to write a companion on financial systems they would compliment any student's library.

tremendously eye opening and disturbing, this book is an excellent and very accurate way to see the underlaying objectives in many "enviromentalist" movements

I like the well thought out quick to business style of writing of this book. The references provide sources for further study. At some times the weight of the information limited the reading speed I could use. Not that the science was hard to get but the moral wrongs this book reveals so clearly make you want to take a deep breath before the next chapter. I really like the big philosophical picture this book provides, it truly helps predict future news by providing the patterns to look out for.I would recommend this book especially to all readers who are puzzled why nuclear energy is not loved more by the so called environmentalists. At the moment I do not have much critique of this book, maybe more references to some items would have been nice. At the moment I consider this book my all time favourite non-fiction book.
