Sommario/riassunto

This ebook consists of a summary of the ideas, viewpoints and facts presented by Al Gore in his book "The Assault on Reason". This summary offers a concise overview of the entire book in less than 30 minutes reading time. However this work does not replace in any case Al Gore's book.<br>Gore argues that the public sphere has degraded into a place that is hostile to reason. Hence he offers a manifesto for clean thinking. <br>
