The UK has set a legal target of net-zero global warming emissions for 2050. The evidence concerning the devastating effects of climate change is witnessed all across the world, and yet ownership of emission-intensive Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) continues to grow at alarming rate: in 2019, about 42% of all new GB car registrations were SUVs or SUV crossovers. SUV Madness explores this car-buying phenomenon in thorough statistical and anecdotal detail. Although written with sadness, and occasional anger, I have attempted to be honest, understanding, humane and even humorous. 'A good read' I hope.

  • On the Duty of Civil Disobedience
    HENRY DAVID THOREAU
    Civil Disobedience argues that citizens should not permit their governments to overrule their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing their acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War, but the sentiments he expresses here are just as pertinent ...
  • Beyond Good and Evil
    Friedrich Nietzsche
    Nietzsche, though primarily a philosopher, wrote widely on art, philology, history, religion, tragedy, culture, and science.  In 1886, at the height of his powers, he published Beyond Good and Evil.  Here he examines much of the best of human thought--dogmatic philosophy, Judeo-Christian morality, science and democracy – and finds it lacking.  Rejecting “slave-morality” he pres...
