Industry Reviews "This lavishly illustrated handbook explores a disaster in the making: the destruction of the Earth's equatorial belt of tropical rain forest. The glory of this book is not only in its informed analysis of the problem, but also in its breath-takingly beautiful color photographs, many of them aerial, of some of the planet's most guarded secrets." Siegel
