A news executive and consultant to government and business on emerging information management, Burns cites many examples to demonstrate how truth succumbs to wishful thinking, information overload, and unintentional distortion of facts. His point is not to blame people for this or that disaster, but to help readers learn to recognize when their own thinking begins to wander off the path. Other examples include Three Mile Island, 9/11, Katrina, and avian flu. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
