Reviews

“It explores the role of capitalism in this context, the relevance of ecology, and more. It reminds readers that scientists publicize their research to persuade funding agencies rather than for the intrinsic worth of the science. … This is a relevant, readable, informative book … . Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.” (V. V. Raman, Choice, Vol. 54 (10), June, 2017)
