Summary: Earth Rising: The Revolution, Toward a Thousand Years of Pea
Review: As for the book, I found it fascinating and informative. On a different note, I would like to comment on the "review of reviewers" a certain Wendell J. McGinness Jr. posted elsewhere in this book review column. Please note, if you will, that Mr. McGinness scathingly derides other reviewers for their grammatical and spelling errors. Ironically enough, his second sentence reads, "It strains the intelligence of some of us to understand how a company trying to sell books (among many other products) and survive as a net business pioneer, could allow so many uneducated, ignorant, pseudo reviews as I have read." The comma after the word "pioneer" is completely unnecessary, as any good English professor would confirm. Mr. McGinness should practice some of what he preaches. As for everyone else, please do not allow sophomoric and pretentious people to taint your enjoyment of life.

Summary: A brave new world in our future?
Review: Earth Rising is an important book about military technology and it's effects on our culture and freedom.

Do top secrect, high tech goverment projects such as weather control, biometrics, electronic survalance and mind contol threaten our freedom and way of life?

Earth rising by Dr. Nick Begich and James Roderick is a well researched book that explores the frighting possobilities in modern technology.

Earth Rising raises many important issues that must be openly and honestly debated if we are to remain a free and democratic society. Earth Rising , however is at times overly technical and boring to read dimishing the impact of this important subject matter. Hopefully in the near furture we will see more clearly writen books on this important issue.

Summary: An outstanding examination of technological/cultural issues.
Review: Earth Rising: The Revolution - Toward A Thousand Years Of Peace examines the issue of technology in terms of its impact on human culture and behavior, including such basic concepts as freedom human dignity, sovereign individuality, and sel-determination. Nick Begich and James Roderick collaborate to survey the revolution in military affairs and its impact on personal freedom; mind control and the manipulation of human health through the use of drugs, electromagnetic weapons and other means; non-lethal weapons and their use and impact on people; environmental and weather control; new technologies which will virtually eliminate privacy from the world science; militarization of law enforcement around the country; and updates the HAARP story with additional evidence of the military's plans to manipulate the environment. Highly recommended reading for students of human affairs and the influence of technology on modern life, Earth Rising: The Revolution concludes with solutions that could be initiated and change the implications of these technologies from a negative to a positive impact upon human society.

Summary: Wendell J. McGinnis needs to get some!(wink-wink)
Review: First let me say that someone who's average bowling score is only 148(I googled him),and has enough time on his hands to review other reviewers on Amazon.com may not be the best person to listen to concerning a books value. Second, if I EVER make it up to Washington I'm lookin this guy up.

Review: for the reviewer's defence. Practicing the review process helps one become more critical.

Summary: Eye-opener
Review: Rating is for reviews, not book. It strains the intelligence of some of us to understand how a company trying to sell books (among many other products) and survive as a net business pioneer, could allow so many uneducated, ignorant, pseudo reviews as I have read. Agreed, very few people are trained or experienced in even thinking like a critic, but please, at the minimum, you could help the pulp by at least throwing in a little bit of SPELL CHECKING and GRAMMAR EDITING before presenting the reviews to us. Poor spelling and grammar is like the proverbial fly in the soup--it makes you question the tainted soup and its source.

Summary: Hard to read
Review: This book was very hard read. The tech. terms were hard to follow .If I had a degree, maybe I could have followed along better. He should have explain some of the big terms. To help people understand these trems.
