A few interesting ideas and some interesting thoughts floating in a see of self-righteous, liberal (american sense) bromides, such as saying that those which support free markets are "market fundamentalists". The book reminded me, in some aspects, of the third way books by Anthony Giddens. It attempts to criticize present day environmentalism without breaking away from the liberal (again in the american sense) world view, just as Giddens attempted to criticize socialism without really leaving it.

Nietzsche-inspired! I think even free-market-hate-the-earth types could feel the pull of this book's arguments. This is the most rhetorically effective pitch for environmentalism I've heard. If nothing else, you may enjoy the insider descriptions of the environmentalist movement, especially the self-misunderstandings that have given rise to the not-very-persuasive public image it's been saddled with for so long.
