The Improving State of the World

The subtitle is Why We’re Living Longer, Healthier, More Comfortable Lives on a Cleaner Planet, and it is written by Indur M. Goklany.  Imagine an up-to-date version of Aaron Wildavsky and Julian Simon, in easily digestible form.  On global warming, it won’t make Tim Lambert happy, but it not "denialist" either.  A useful resource, recommended.  Here is the book’s home page.  Here are papers by Goklany.
