Refreshingly Logical

Chicken Little Agenda: Debunking "Experts'" Lies What a wonderful book! Using scientific facts, Williscroft explains away the would-be dire issues trumpeted by today's alarmists. To my delight, he applies that same good sense to a wide variety of other subjects, including morality and ethics, that are extremely relevant to the manner in which we live. This is a "must read" for anyone who seeks the truth in this upside down world. I highly recommend it.

INFORMATION IS POWER!

FINALLY! A book about higher matters that I can understand! The daily news is full of unpleasant problems regarding our world, whether it be the ozone hole, global warming, terrorists, illegal immigrants, the Bird Flu, fuel dependency, food toxicity, antibiotic resistant bacteria - well you understand what I am trying to say. Fear at every door! This book presents another possibility. It gives the reader the knowledge to decide what the real fears are so that we can create a real plan that most of us can understand for each individual's good, and not be wagged around by those who have gotten caught up in a trendy hysteria, political gain, or fifteen minutes of fame. We have been dealing with many of the current issues since the l980s, and we still are. What we have been doing hasn't worked...SO...dosn't it make sense to explore another path. Information is power, and The Chicken Little Agenda gives the reader the power of knowledge. It is easy to understand, written with easily accessible concepts. It is definitely not over you head!

A Thinker's Antidote To Fear

Fair disclosure: Chicken Little's author is my dad. If you've had a son, though--or been one--you'll appreciate that an endorsement from this direction is by no means a guarantee. Still, I can't help it: I'm impressed. My dad's been writing this book for most of my life. He and I have been around the block once or twice on many of the issues between its covers, and I was pleased to find that the lessons I learned along the way about the real world--you know, this big rock we all live on--translate well into print. The fundamental thesis here is that there's a real world out there if you're willing to ignore the spin-doctors and go look for it. It's a place whose attributes are measurable, consistent, and... brace yourself... rather encouraging! I'd recommend my dad's book to anybody who professes to have an open mind. Will you agree with everything he has to say? Maybe not. But since his point is that assertions can be checked, give it a try. Odds are you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Do yourself a very big favor and read it

What if I told you there was a book that even a person with no scientific knowledge could read and understand that would dispel all your fears about "global warming", nuclear energy, "ozone holes", and much of what the daily media tells you poses a terrible threat to the Earth and you? What if I told you the book was written by a retired submarine officer with a B.S. in oceanography and meteorology from the University of Washington and a M.S. and Ph.D. in engineering from California Coast University? What if I told you that, after reading "The Chicken Little Agenda" you would be the best informed, smartest person in the room when some idiot began to tell everyone that the Earth was doomed, there's no way to provide electricity without producing greenhouse gases, blah, blah, blah! This is hands-down the best book I have read in a very long time when it comes to explaining and debunking the kind of nonsense in Al Gore's new film or the cover stories of Time and other so-called news magazines. Do yourself a very big favor and read it.

Hot button topics

Robert Williscroft has masterfully debunked what masquerades as science in a range of hot button topics from the environment and energy to education and government. He's made his arguments accessible to the ordinary person supplying him with intellectual ammunition to confront the "experts."
