Good choice if you want a low key overview of the disaster. Safina was personally there gathering information & impressions and while a moderate as far as his general position, he does not hesitate to express confusion & frustration as he is systematically blocked by BP from access and even some of the most straight forward, basic responses to simple question. There are even a few times when when this frustration boils over to outrage or anger, when he feels local & sometimes federal officiails act as if BP owns the gulf, and the residents of the coast are annoying foreigners on vacation.
