Tim Flannery's first major book since The Weather Makers charts the
history of life on our planet. Here on Earth, which draws its points
of departure from Darwin and Wallace, Lovelock and Dawkins, is an
extraordinary exploration of evolution and sustainability.
Our success as a species has had disastrous effects on many of the
Earth's ecosystems and could lead to our downfall. But equally, Flannery
argues, we are now equipped as never before to explore our true
relationship with the planet on which our biological, economic, and
cultural futures depend.
Here on Earth is not just a dazzling account of life on our planet. It
will change the way you live.
