<DIV>Michael Tobias' latest work of fiction is a shocking, breath-stopping political thriller which tracks the fury of an outraged ex-Special Forces veteran who turns to violent retribution in defense of the earth and its fauna. <I>Rage and Reason</I> is an unstoppable rollercoaster of action which explodes across four continents—a chief executive's severed head is served up at a stockholder's luncheon...a furrier is skinned alive...Thai poachers are deftly eliminated...and the first day of hunting season in the Maine woods is turned into a human massacre. <I>Rage and Reason</I> is as vivid a portrayal of the horrors of vivisection and the meat industry as Upton Sinclair's classic <I>The Jungle</I>.<br>"A terrific story, told from the heart, its soul rich with knowledge. Some people and corporations should lose sleep wondering if <I>Rage & Reason</I> will ever become a real life thriller for them."—Ingrid E. Newkirk, President, PETA—People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals<br></DIV>
