4 out of 5 stars Little slow decent quality. but very cheap :)

The page themselves are in excellent condition and the book cost like 50 cents so as long as I ordered early or wasn't in a hurry I'd buy again.The book came within the time they allowed themselves but still took a few weeks. I was also unable to track the item to see if it had been shipped yet. The little paper cover protector was water damaged and all wrinkled so it doesn't fit on the book right. I just ended up taking it off.

5 out of 5 stars perfect

I first bought this book when it initially came out and found it fascinating. I loaned my old book out too many times and had to replace it. I'd highly recommend it to anyone interested in their environment.

5 out of 5 stars A life changer

The simple but profound truths in this book opened a lot of eyes -- within the chemical industry and in the real world. Facing some of the strongest opposition, Dr. Colborn changed lives (and scientific approaches) with Stolen Future. Humanity owes her a debt of gratitude.

Perhaps EPA will start to require testing of chemicals for endocrine disruption. Regulations have only been delayed for a dozen years...

5 out of 5 stars This book will make you think

This book is an incredible read. I highly recommend it for anyone who is concerned about the environment and their own health. This book contains a lot of research, which contributes to its credibility, however it is far from your typical scientific book. It's a fascinating read for anyone, whether they have a background in biology or environmental science or not. I actually read it as part of an extra credit assignment for one of my college classes. My original intention was to skim the book and write a summary. I became so wrapped up in the book that I literally read it cover to cover - including the forward and the afterward. I later purchased my own copy. This book is both challenging and fascinating. Read it!

5 out of 5 stars eye opening reality

A great, easy to read arguement that we are creating our own demise to profit in the short term. Theo has had a daunting task and put together the pieces of scientific evidence into a timely work of art that questions the side effects of our daily practices. I'd love a sequeal for personal and corporate change that would, of course, only slow the possible outcomes of our daily lives and of those wonderous creatures which have no choice inhabiting and inheriting the tainted sphere with us.
