Rendition To Books Bring On The Apocalypse

These six incendiary arguments about money, religion, war, power, culture and nature constitute a wake-up call about the need for justice. George Monbiot is admired for his unquenchable thirst for truth and an assured nose for spin. In this series of essays on money, religion, war, power, culture and nature, he explains why we are heading into an uncertain future in which peace and sound politics are paramount to our survival. From his attack on the countries that deny the existence of global warming to his rally against the injustices of the Iraq war, Monbiot turns his gaze on the aspects of modernity that most endanger the prevailing world order. With characteristic precision, he offers unassailable proof that the desecration of the resources on which we all depend threatens the peace, equality - and very existence - of humanity. Bring on the Apocalypse is an urgent wake-up call that we cannot afford to ignore.

Write Up About Books Bring On The Apocalypse

George Monbiot is a brilliant journalist and author, and this collection of columns from The Guardian, divided into six broad themes of global justice, neatly demonstrates the case. I was turned onto Monbiot's incisive and provocative reporting while living in England, and last summer thoroughly enjoyed diving into his most recent book, the adventurous and inspiring Feral. As such, I was excited to stumble across this collection on the library shelf recently.Bring on the Apocalypse covers a lot

Nothing new here if you've read Chomsky, Zinn, Pilger, Parenti but interesting just the same. Though its dated mid 2000's much is still relevant today and I liked this:- " When did you last see a sponsored marathon raising money for nuclear weapons? But we must beg and cajole each other for funds whenever a hospital wants a new dialysis maching"....Pg 99.

A collection of Monbiot's always readable and amusing guardian columns. Because the articles are very short, they aren't strong on detail or analysis, but well written and interesting pieces nevertheless and I was - well pleased maybe would be an inappropriate word - to see so much about my local PFI hospital, confirming my suspicions that there was something dodgy about it.

Suffered somewhat from its age but an interesting read.

Anger and frustration over the cocked-up mismanagement of our world, the same anger that leaves me numb and mute and useless so often, is a sustaining fuel for George Monbiot. This is a collection of his incisive, indignant arguments from The Guardian, on dozens of topics but all infused with today's distasteful Zeitgeist. If you want spades to be called spades, and if you like facts with your fury, then you'll appreciate George.

I did not finish reading this book. It was a polemic, using patriarchal structures to scare people. He has a good grasp of the issues, but hardly any understanding of people.
