The Gaia Atlas of Future Worlds takes up where the WWF Atlas of the Environment leaves off: extrapolating the environmental trends of today into tomorrow. Incorporating the Gaia belief that planet Earth and all the living organisms inhabiting it act as one `superorganism', Myers analyzes current pressures on the Earth, projects their impact in the decades to come, and offers course-changing suggestions. More than 100 illustrations, photographs, and graphs, combined with an index and bibliography, make this an invaluable reference tool.
