The 500-Year Delta: What Happens After What Comes Next

James Taylor, Howard Means, ...

Harperbusiness, 1997

Interesting and insightful but overly wordy
In short the book could have been about 60% shorter. At times the hypothesis drawn are illuminating but very often the authors are spending entirely too much time to support their insights.

Great Release
some very funny moments on this CD. i used to listen to the LP many years ago , wore it out completely. WUPS makes me smile everytime i hear it. this was the bands last chance to make it big. Only Sixteen was the hit that made them superstars. A very hard to find CD, get it while you still can.
