Review : Glorious dioxin

Population Bomb author Paul Ehrlich, together with Anne Ehrlich, argues that
misinformation spread by anti-environmentalists has been disproved by
scientists. In a bid to win back American confidence in environmental science,
The Betrayal of Science and Reason (Island Press, $24.95, ISBN 1 55963
483 9) enjoyably demolishes the most outrageous fables including the claim that
dioxin is no more dangerous than a week’s sunbathing.
