Cecile Pineda's astonishing anatomy of the Fukushima Daiichi
nuclear disaster . . . echoes the best work of Rachel Carson,
Marilyn Robinson, and Helen Caldicott. It is a work of a conscience
truly in touch with, and deeply concerned with, humanity." —John
Nichols, author, The Milagro Beanfield War
"Pineda's masterful framing of the urgency for readers to learn
from the Japanese nuclear disaster and the machinations of its
industry handlers makes Devil's Tango one of the most important and
required reads this year." ;—Jeff Biggers, Huffington Post
"With Devil's Tango [Cecile Pineda] has created a new and necessary
genre, one which reflects both the fission at the core of the
nuclear process and its fragmenting effects on our minds and lives.
. . . Pineda lets us glimpse how we too can bring a kind of
wholeness, or healing, to our fractured world." —Joanna Macy,
Eco-philosopher and author, Pass It On: Five Stories that Can
Change the World
