The Real Environmental Crisis

Poverty and Hunger
Better late than never. My review of Jack Hollander's The Real Environmental Crisis is up over on the Humane Studies Review.
While I applaud Hollander's efforts to forward the mantra that wealthier is healthier, I am critical of his route to wealth creation. His faith in development assistance and his underestimation of the importance of property rights and rule of law left him only half right in reaching the solution. Still, the idea of any hard scientist advocating wealthier is healthier is a step in the right direction.
