A revised and updated edition of the book that sounded the wake-up call on global warming.
For centuries, mankind has taken nature for granted, treating it as invincible and as a wilderness apart from man. In this book, Bill McKibben argues passionately that if the world is to survive, we have to rethink this relationship.
For this new edition, McKibben has updated all the statistical information and written a new introduction which sets out how much has changed - both for better and for worse - in the last fifteen years.
