this page is at http://site.www.umb.edu/faculty/salzman_g/SfHS/Bibliog/index.htm This subfolder of the Science for Humane Survival folder will contain, in addition to the bibliography, the contents of an annotated bibliography, mentioned below. I put together the bibliography beginning in Fall 1991, when I again began offering Science for Humane Survival at the Univ of Massachusetts. As additional titles came to mind, not infrequently from students' suggestions, I added them, up until the Fall 1997 term (my last term teaching at UMass). Obviously there are many other titles that might be included. Books are listed alphabetically by author. Each of the 90 titles on the list was acceptable for a critical book review. I also prepared an extensive annotated bibliography with comments on many of the books and authors. The information was to help students choose which four books to read in a given term. In assembling the list I included books that are short, simply written, easy to read, such as What Uncle Sam Really Wants, and others that are lengthy and densely packed with information, such as The New Our Bodies, Ourselves, which is encyclopedic. In each case my only criterion was whether the book helps us to know the world in which we live. The links on this list are to the annotated material. The prices, for books in print, were the list prices, generally as of about January 1993, so far as I knew them, usually to the nearest dollar, e.g. instead of $6.95, I listed $7. I objected to pricing things `a few pennies' less than the nearest whole dollar, part of the commercial gimmickry in which money-based profit-oriented societies wallow. Agee, Philip
