In one book: everything that is wrong with the world. Alternative World by
Nares Craig gives us the works: social, environmental, military, demographic and
on and on. Angry and hysterical in diagnosis; naive and sometimes demagogic in
prescription. The source notes reveal it as largely a digest of stories from The
Guardian and Observer newspapers in 1991 and 1992. Published by Housmans
Bookshop Publications, London, £7.50, ISBN 0 85283 251 6.
