Lovelock & Gaia

Lovelock & Gaia

Signs Of Life

BY JON TURNEY

Brief Description:
A small paperback sized hardback that looks at Lovelock's idea that the Earth is almost a self regulating superorganism, That from bacteria in rain clouds, or deep in the earth to Glaciers and huge forest fires the Earth is a fantastically complex planet that adjusts to keep its biosphere optimized. Now the trouble is that it is optimized for "life" -not for Humanity. Lovelock remains a scientific outsider, but Gaia is now a more mainstream theory.

Columbia University Press 2003 154 PP. Cloth
