As with most Michael Crichton books I got education as well as entertainment.
This is a well written, well researched action book which actually somewhat reverses the roles of villian and hero. Crichton deftly reverses the roles with information I never even dreamed of and motives that are actually quite believable. "State of Fear" pits our unlikely heroes against an even more unlikely foe as they attempt to save the world from the very people trying to save the world.
A read of this book will make you think hard about global warming and all the rhetoric from the conservationists. Maybe things aren't what they seem?
I would suggest you not miss the oppertunity to read this interesting and thought provoking book.
