FINE/LIKE NEW condition – but for some rubbing on rear cover where a sticker was removed on the bar code, this gorgeous, ground breaking book is pristine and appears never read… tight binding, no crease in spine, clean glossy pages with no markings noticed.
“Healing Gaia: Practical Medicine for the Planet” is a thought-provoking book written by James Lovelock, an eminent scientist and environmentalist. In this book, Lovelock argues that the Earth, like a living organism, is a self-regulating system that can heal itself if left to its own devices. However, he also highlights the dangers that human activities pose to the planet’s delicate balance and emphasizes the need for immediate action to prevent irreparable damage.
Lovelock presents a comprehensive overview of the challenges faced by our planet and proposes practical solutions to address them. From renewable energy sources to rewilding, the book offers a range of suggestions to tackle environmental issues that are both realistic and achievable. He also discusses the need for a paradigm shift in the way we approach environmental issues and stresses the importance of a holistic and interconnected approach to sustainability.
Overall, “Healing Gaia” is an insightful and inspiring read that will appeal to anyone interested in environmental issues and the future of our planet. It is a timely reminder that we must take responsibility for our actions and work together to ensure a sustainable future for generations to come.
