This is a half-baked treatise that uses global warming and peak oil as a rationale for "spiritual" living. Actual science and studies are thin on the ground.

I really should have guessed that something was up when looking at the recommendations: they are from the authors of "The Crack in the Cosmic Egg", "Conversations with God", "Conscious Evolution", "The Shaman's Doorway", "A Deep Breath of Life" and "Voice of the Planet". I read to the point where he started talking about the indoctrinating effect of television on today's youth. It's going in my recycling pile when I can be bothered to pick it up.

I suppose I shouldn't be quite so hard on it given that it was written in 1998, but having just read Plan B, Hot: The Next 50 years, and The Ecotechnic Future -- this book doesn't measure up to any one of them. There are more comprehensive, more complete books out there now. Go buy one of them.
