_City of Quartz_ is truly rad, as we say in So. Cal. Good and punchy (like _Wall Street_). I'm attracted by some kind of sentiment too, since MD grew up in San Diego County (can't recall just now where).
Not through _Ecology of Fear_ yet.
However, as my friend noted out, what's up with the bio blurb: Mike Davis was a truckdriver and meat-packer(?) and now teaches Urban Theory. Surely he got some higher education in between. Why the academic self-loathing :-)? There's no shame.
