The earth around us
"Have we reached the limits of this planet's ability to provide for us? If so, what can we do about it?" "These questions are addressed in The Earth Around Us, a collection of thirty-one essays by a diverse array of today's foremost scientist-writers. The contributors explore Earth's history and processes - especially in relation to today's environmental issues - and show how we, as members of a global community, can help maintain a livable planet."--BOOK JACKET.
