Under a Green Sky: Global Warming, the Mass Extinctions of the Past, and What They Can Tell Us about Our Future by Peter D. Ward
Under a Green Sky: Global Warming, the Mass Extinctions of the Past, and What They Can Tell Us about Our Future

segwayer, August 1, 2007

Had Peter Ward had his book proof read I would recommend it. Ward must have read lots of German literature, because his sentences go on and on and on. He has a number of incorrect facts Like Helium 2 is the normal Earth Helium and Helium 3 is extra terrestrial - NOT. Too many little errors. Entertaining and thought provoking, - I did not put it down, but his projection of why Peruvians chew coca leaves, I believe is wrong. having lived in peru and chewed coca. Too many easily disproven facts, factoids, and theories. His graphs have easily found errors. 940 instead of 1940, in a list of 1920, 1930, 940, 1950. Stupid mistakes. Get a proofreader.
