Did you or Jackie read this review of a book about the 1995 Chicago heat wave that left 700 dead?(its a few post up)

It's rather long, (of course the book is longer and more detailed) but it covers alot of what makes a heat wave in a modern city dangerous- from poverty, to crime, to government 'effecientcy' -- i haven't kept track of how the various government in europe have acted in response to the heat wave-so i don't know if they were as bad as chicago was.

its a sobering read-- (the book sounds almost gruesome)
