图书描述

A major book about the future of the world, blending intellectual and natural history and field reporting into a powerful account of the mass extinction unfolding before our eyes

Over the last half-billion years, there have been Five mass extinctions, when the diversity of life on earth suddenly and dramatically contracted. Scientists around the world are currently monitoring the sixth extinction, predicted to be the most devastating extinction event since the asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs. This time around, the cataclysm is us. In prose that is at once frank, entertaining, and deeply informed, New Yorker writer Elizabeth Kolbert tells us why and how human beings have altered life on the planet in a way no species has before. Interweaving research in half a dozen disciplines, descriptions of the fascinating species that have already been lost, and the history of extinction as a concept, Kolbert provides a moving and comprehensive account of the disappearances occurring before our very eyes. She shows that the sixth extinction is likely to be mankind's most lasting legacy, compelling us to rethink the fundamental question of what it means to be human.

Essential reading

写的不错，不是简单的treehugger的宣传，很多确凿的科学数据，却用散文一样的语言来讲解，于是像小说一样引人入胜。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

可以从作品中看到这确实是一位很有实力并且经验丰富的作家，文笔生动，理论也很扎实，并且书后面很清晰列出了各种各样非常厚实的reference list。（生词也很多，读到2/3已经没有耐心查字典了…）在探讨人类、环境和其他生物的关系时也是非常理性和克制的，不会抨击自己不认同的观点，在探讨的时候就是单纯探讨，没有想要通过作品的影响力去达到私人目的，这是让我觉得很敬佩的地方。

Frogs, auks, bats, rhinos, reefs, Neanderthals. Artisan is how I find aptest to describe the delicacy of nature hand. And yet, like tourists' cursory glance at exhibits, no quintessence of nature vitality has ever reached we sightseers' eye.
