State of Fear

Michael Crichton ha sacado su última novela:

In “State of Fear,” it is money-hungry environmentalists whose illicit schemes are always being caught on tape. (As one environmentalist says to another, explaining the need for faked lightning and tidal waves, “Species extinction from global warming—nobody gives a shit.”) Meanwhile, the scientists who could reveal the truth are all co-conspirators; they suppress results that don’t support alarmist conclusions because they, too, are part of the “politico-legal-media complex,” or “P.L.M.” The P.L.M. wants to control free-thinking Americans by keeping them in a perpetual “state of fear.”

Como punto de partida no me parece mal. Lo hemos visto con el maremoto del sureste asiático: la Naturaleza funciona de una forma difícil de comprender y lo que necesitamos es una ciencia que busque la verdad, no seguir consignas. Hace falta desenmascarar a esa gente por el bien de todos.
