Book's that Might Be of Interest
bulletMichael Crichton. 2004. State of Fear. Harper Collins Publishers.  A fictional technothriller novel that combines Crichton's ability to blend scientific facts and information within a suspenseful novel.  Of particular interest is the novel's exploration of whether environmentalists go too far with their characterization of problems such as global warming.
