I heard about this book via Greenpeace and The Rainbow Warrior vessel. I downloaded the book and then didn't read it - too busy, other things took precedence. However, after reading Kent Nerburn's book; Neither Dog Nor Wolf, I moved onto it. A great book, pulling together a host of thoughts into a cohesive whole. It's one I fully recommend and will read again...
