Summary: Propaganda or Truth? - Much needed perspective
Comment: This book is an important first step in understanding the corporate world, and what the ideaology of "profit over everything" is doing to the natural and human world.
Some ideas from Paul Hawkin's "The Ecology of Commerce" (but don't believe him...look it up):
*we have decimated ninety-seven percent of the forests in North America
*every day we draw out 20 billion more gallons of water from the ground than are replaced by rainfall
*the Ogalala Aquifer, an underwater river beneath the Great Plains larger than any body of fresh water on earth, will dry up within thirty to forty years at present rates of extraction
*globally we lose 25 billion tons of fertile topsoil every year, the equivalent of all the wheatfields in Australia
Call that "leftist BS" if you will, but there is something going on in the world that will reveal it self whether you are or are not looking. Our current business practices are destroying the very infrastructure on which our business ideaology is built upon. If you don't think so, you haven't been paying attention.

Summary: Trilateralism - A Biased But Worthwhile Read
Comment: As a subscriber to the view that capitalists, for the most part, are heroes and that capitalism, for the most part, is the best of breed, I could have done without the editor's spin. This aside, trilateralism should be of interest to everyone who has an interest in globalism and the global economy; it contains a great deal of information not readily elsewhere. The unheralded contributions of the trilateralists will become evident upon a reading of this book; disregard the spin. I did.

Summary: Red spin galore
Comment: I was looking for basic factual information on the trilateral commission. This book seemed very fine from the table of contents and superficial paging--a lot of reference data, etc. What attracted me also was a complete lack of right-wing grumble about jews/builderbergers/new world order/black UN helicopters and other such 'wake-up-americans' rant. However, I was quickly disappointed, because the lack of right-wing ranting is generously compensated by the red spin. For every ounce of info this book contains a kilo of nauseating leftist bs, which I'm afraid, makes it unreadable. It does have a lot of data, so, if you think you can plow through "imperialism" and other such stuff, it may be useful. I resent this style though, and will have to look for some other, less prejudiced book. Definitely peruse before buying, in fact, more: read a chapter, see if you throw up. If not, the book may be ok for you.
