Actually, the reviewers and the author both describe corporations
as "pathological", and imply that something should be done to
cure them.  That sounds "against corporations" in a pretty serious
way to me.  

It also describes that the author's goal is to reform corporations
into green-aware, socially acceptable forms.  As far as I am concerned,
plenty of that has already been done by government, including
your trustbuster references, and I am all for limiting corporations
to ensure that there aren't ANY monopolies.  But I still feel
that there is a lot that could be done to further limit the excesses
of government.  The U.S. constitution is a marvelous document,
but even so, there should be further limits on government to
keep it from many of the ills it now exhibits.
