The eminent Harvard naturalist and Pulitzer Prize winner Edward Wilson marshals all the prodigious powers of his intellect and imagination in this impassioned call to ensure the future of life. Opening with an imagined conversation with Henry David Thoreau at Walden Pond, he writes that he has come "to explain to you, and in reality to others and not least to myself, what has happened to the world we both have loved." Based on a love affair with the natural world that spans 70 years, Wilson combines lyrical descriptions with dire warnings and remarkable stories of flora and fauna on the edge of extinction with hard economics. How many species are we really losing? Is environmentalism truly contrary to economic development? And how can we save the planet? Wilson has penned an eloquent plea for the need for a global land ethic and offers the strategies necessary to ensure life on earth based on foresight, moral courage, and the best tools that science and technology can provide.

評分「在我人生中,有个难忘时刻发生在 1994年一个5月的黄昏,地点是辛辛那提动物园展示区后面的房间。在那儿,我走向一头 4岁大、名叫“艾美”的苏门答腊犀牛,凝望了一会儿它那悲惨的脸,然后用手轻轻抚平它侧腹上的毛发。它没有任何反应,除了眨了一下眼。这就是当时所发生的一...
評分低级生物有些超越我们想象的极端环境造就的适应能力,生命条件由环境影响,高温高压,严寒也有生命存在。极端环境成就极端条件下的生命,环境成就生命,环境成就了天才,生物圈是一环扣一环的复杂系统,只有合适的土壤才能让生物蓬勃发展,必须有基本的数量才能维持物种的延续...
