The Anthropocene A Multidisciplinary Approach

"An accessible tour de force and an ideal starting point for anyone seeking an understanding of the Anthropocene predicament."
--John R. McNeill, Georgetown University
 
"Earth System scientists have proposed the Anthropocene and geologists are confirming its reality. This work explores more important questions: what does the Anthropocene really mean for humanity and what are the many ways we could deal with it?"
--Will Steffen, Australian National University
 
"The big market for this book in Australia is the "educated general reader" and they will love it. It is not so much an "introductory course book" for them, but rather a review book that empowers them to understand and take action. It is a tour-de-force."
--Libby Robin, author of The Environment: A History of the Idea
 
"An indispensable guide... The Anthropocene maps cultural and scientific definitions of its subject in ways that experts will find provocative and students accessible."
--Green Letters
 
"This book should be required introductory reading for anyone interested in learning about the Anthropocene, and particularly for those concerned about the broad but intertwined challenges facing humanity, our environments, and the planet."
--The Holocene
