Description

This paperback reprint edition is in good condition with only a few creases and dings on the cover. Insides of the front and rear cover are clean. Pages have minor rippling of the upper corner just from being in storage. Its 256 pages describe ecological problems facing our world present a forum for experts to offer slogans and solutions on all sides of the issue, but leave most of us confused and unsure of the future. In this bracing book, Garrett Hardin offers a plan for clear thinking about these dangers. He shows how the filters of literacy, understanding what words really mean; numeracy, being able to quantify and interpret information; and ecolacy, assessment of complex interactions over time, can allow anyone to make sensible judgments about ecological issues--even in the face of a barrage of confusing expertise. "Filters Against Folly offers an antidote to some of the more perverse and dangerous irrationalities of our time: wishful self-delusion, educated incapacity, and foolhardy optimism...If ever this book were needed, it is needed today." -- Lynton K. Caldwell, School of Public Environmental Affairs, Indiana University

Will you help us make the world a better place? When big business obsesses over squeezing out every last penny of profit, it's good for them (in the short term), but often bad for everyone else. It's bad for everyday people especially when it's done through growing and optimzing a fee structure rather than adding new features or services for the customer. It's worst when becoming so corrupt that only their business is making money while the rest of us struggle just to get by. Have you begun to feel this way especially on eBay? By the time we pay eBay's fees, there's often little or nothing left; right? Our service is free. And it will remain free to our members forever. So, it's a place where everyday people can buy and sell their items and retain maximum benefit. If you agree this is a good idea, please:
