Edward Flattau provides a masterful compilation of valid environmental statisitics as well as a down-to-earth analysis of todays environmental problems. This book gave me tons of amunition for todays ongoing environmental wars, a must read for any environmentalist or concerned citizen.

Mr. Flattau tears into the anti-environmentalists from page one and never lets up. He is to be commended for his non-mainstream appraisal of just why the issues of global warming and planetary degradation are still being denied by high-profile commentators and naysayers in the media. His love of aliteration in his writing style sometimes grates on the reader's nerves, but that aside, Tracking the Charlatans is a well written and worth while read for anyone interested in the politics of environmentalism and the survival of our world.

I've known Ed Flattau and his wife for over 20 years. This guy leaves no stones unturned, minces no words and doesn't care where the chips fall. As a reporter, he's after the truth and does not compromise his integrity to uncover it.

An excellent book for all ages--should be mandatory in the schools!

I care about the environment but I usually can't get through the books. What I like about Tracking the Charlatans is that it gave me a lot of information about the big environmental issues and the people who speak and write about them without making me feel like its assigned reading.
