Couverture de Something New Under The Sun: An Environmental History Of The Twentieth-Century World par Professor J. R. Mcneill

Résumé

Man's dream of control over nature is on the verge of becoming reality as we reshape ecosystems in accordance with our needs and exploit the earth's mineral resources ever more comprehensively and on an ever greater scale. The extent of man's dominion over his physical environment in this century has reached the stage where we are now directly responsible for the survival of life on the planet. McNeill traces the story of this so far unstoppable progress and considers its full toll as we enter a new century.
