Merchants of Despair book

Merchants of Despair: Radical Environmentalists, Criminal Pseudo-Scientists, and the Fatal Cult of Antihumanism (New Atlantis Books) by Robert Zubrin (Author). There was a time when humanity looked in the mirror and saw something valuable, price protecting and preventing for-certainly, worth liberating. However now, we are beset on all sides by propaganda promoting a radically totally different viewpoint. In response to this idea, human beings are a most cancers upon the Earth, a horde of vermin whose aspirations and appetites are endangering the natural order. That is the core of antihumanism.

Retailers of Despair traces the pedigree of this ideology and exposes its pernicious penalties in startling and horrifying detail. The e book names the chief prophets and promoters of antihumanism during the last two centuries, from Thomas Malthus through Paul Ehrlich and Al Gore. It exposes the worst crimes perpetrated by the antihumanist motion, including eugenics campaigns in the United States and genocidal anti-growth and population-management packages around the world.

Combining riveting tales from a historical past with highly effective coverage arguments, Retailers of Despair give scientific refutations to all of antihumanism’s major pseudo-scientific claims, together with its modern tirades in opposition to nuclear power, pesticides, inhabitants progress, biotech foods, resource depletion, and industrial development.

The biggest benefit of this ebook is the large number of citations - from Malthus, Darwin, Galton, nationwide socialists and quite just a few contemporary environmentalists. A few of these citations are surprising indeed and paing utterly completely different picture of well-known scientists and philosophers in comparison with what we have been used to see.

This e-book clearly traces the ant-human motion from before the twentieth C. By right now's anti-human movement (hiding behind the facade of environmentalism). This book is a page turner and after I completed my only thought was that I needed that the creator went into *extra* element on every subject!
