Synopsis
With his 1979 publication of GAIA: A NEW LOOK AT LIFE ON EARTH, which stated that the earth is a unified organism made up of parts such as its surface, its atmosphere, and its inhabitants, James Lovelock became known as one of the most innovative, prophetic scientists of the day. In 2009, he is at the forefront once again, though this time he brings more sobering news. With his seventh Gaia-related title, Lovelock becomes one of the first scientists to officially declare defeat in our fight to stop global warming. With compelling scientific evidence, he demonstrates that the human population has already passed the point of no return, and that environmental disaster is imminent. He calls for the immediate preparation of safe havens in isolated areas, which will be necessary to keep humanity safe from Earth's massive oncoming casualties.

Industry Reviews
"Lovelock is a plain and simple writer, and his prose has a natural grace that makes this book a pleasure to read despite its depressing thesis."
(07/06/2009)

"Whatever one makes of this cranky and idiosyncratic book, one thing is clear. James Lovelock has told it as he sees it....[A]t ninety he has nothing to lose, while readers, however skeptical, have much to gain."
