Reviews
"Rik Scarce examines the controversial world of radical environmentalism, providing a sympathetic and fascinating look inside the hearts and minds of those who would meld Gandhi with King Ludd." -New York Times Book Review // "This book should come with a label: 'Warning! Potent Ideas at Work.' Only the most depraved cynic could complete this reading and remain unaffected." -Bloomsbury Review, "[T]his is a valuable introduction to the 'radical' environmentalists--those whose despair over the deterioration of the planet has moved them to take militant and sometimes violent action." --The Progressive, "It may be hard for many to understand those who are willing to risk their lives in defense of the planet, but this book is excellent in explaining who they are and what motivates them….

    Just as described, book was like new. Item shipped in a box, great!, however, the box was much bigger than the book with nothing to hold the book inside so it got banged around inside the box during shipping. Used boxes that fit better or packaging material.

    Book is as listed with the exception of penciled underlining and penciled writing in the margins throughout the book. I appreciate the packaging of the paperback book in a cardboard mailer box and it arrived undamaged. Fast shipping. A
