The Earth Around Us: Maintaining a Livable Planet
The Earth Around Us: Maintaining a Livable Planet
Editorial Reviews
Victor John Yannacone, Jr., co-founder of the Environmental Defense Fund
"The Earth Around Us is the worthy sequel to Rachel Carson's The Sea Around Us. It is destined to motivate this generation of human beings to work toward assuring an Earth on which succeeding generations can live and prosper."
Sandra Steingraber, Ph.D., author, Living Downstream: An Ecologist Looks at Cancer and the Environment.
Here is a book that gives a voice to geology's secret passion: an abiding love of the Earth. Amazing in its scope, enthralling in its details, my copy of The Earth Around Us is sure to become well-thumbed, heavily underlined, and keep me up late. Bravo to Jill Schneiderman!
