520 $aIn Betrayal of science and reason, the authors contrast anti-environmental rhetoric with the consensus view of the scientific community, tackling head-on such issues as population growth, desertification, food production, global warming, ozone depletion, acid rain, and biodiversity loss. They also offer a unique glimpse into how scientists can speak out on matters of social urgency yet retain the support of the scientific community.
