A new edition of the book that launched Elizabeth Kolbert's career as an environmental writer--updated with three new chapters, making it, yet again, "irreplaceable" (Boston Globe).
Elizabeth Kolbert's environmental classic Field Notes from a Catastrophe first developed out of a groundbreaking, National Magazine Award-winning three-part series in The New Yorker. She expanded it into a still-concise yet richly researched and damning book about climate change: a primer on the greatest challenge facing the world today. But in the years since, the story has continued to develop; the situation has become more dire, even as our understanding grows. Now, Kolbert returns to the defining book of her career. She has added a chapter bringing things up-to-date on the existing text, plus three new chapters--on ocean acidification, the tar sands, and a Danish town that's gone carbon neutral--making it, again, a must-read for our moment.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Bloomsbury USAISBN-13:9781620409886ISBN-10:1620409887UPC:9781620409886Book Category:Political Science, ScienceBook Subcategory:Public Policy, Environmental ScienceBook Topic:Environmental PolicySize:8.20 x 5.50 x 0.90 inchesWeight:0.75Product ID:SCHRWA7GFY
