Book Reviews of The Revenge of Gaia: Earth's Climate Crisis & The Fate of Humanity

Book Review: The authority on what we as a specie are doing to our planet
Summary: 5 Stars

I am molecular biology student and highly recommend this book.

A living testament to a biologist who understands the completeness of the global ecosystem above all others. A conclusion based upon scientific facts, that will both horrify and astound in the ways it shows us the real impact on what human civilisation is doing to this complicated and biologically diverse global environment. If you are concerned about what the next 100 years have to bring, you must read this book. Buy it. Be shocked.

Not only does Lovelock show us the effect of what we are doing, he also shows us the ways in which we can help protect our genetic heritage for the future. My words cannot do this book justice by the way it will hopefully finally open the eyes of those who ar not ignorant of scientific thought or process.
A groundbreaking book. A legacy.
