Book Review
Each student is required to read, review, and critique a book that touches on the themes we will discuss this semester related to environmental policy analysis.  This semester, the book is:
bulletMichael Crichton's State of Fear (2004)
Given the subject matter we will discuss the book in conjunction with the discussion of Memo Assignment #6 that addresses global warming and climate change.
Written Assignment
You have some flexibility in terms of how you prepare your critique.  It is limited to 6 double-spaced (or three single-spaced) pages using 12-point font.  Be sure to clearly articulate the central premises or arguments advanced by the author and feel free to agree or disagree with all or part of these arguments.  You should also relate the content to the material we discuss over the course of the semester and look for examples that illustrate the concepts we are discussing.
