Critical reviews[edit]

The Republican War on Science received many positive reviews.[1][41][42][43][44] A review in Scientific American described it as well-researched and closely argued.[1] Michael Stebbins wrote in Nature Medicine that the book should be a wake-up call and stated, "Mooney's documentation of the willful manipulation of science on the part of conservatives to suit an agenda is well supported and nauseating."[42] It was featured on the cover of The New York Times Book Review and selected as an "Editors' Choice" by The New York Times.[45]

Storm World was written after Mooney witnessed the devastation of his mother's house in Hurricane Katrina.[46] Thomas Hayden wrote in the Los Angeles Times that Mooney deftly handled the complexity of the questions surrounding global warming and its effect on hurricanes while weaving an intriguing and important story.[47] A review in The New York Times Book Review called it "a well-researched, nuanced book" but criticized its organization and lack of "pizazz".[48]

Writing about The Republican Brain in The New York Times Paul Krugman stated that Mooney makes a good point: the personality traits associated with modern conservatism, particularly a lack of openness, make the modern Republican Party hostile to the idea of objective inquiry.
