"One of those rare books that's both sweeping and specific, scholarly and readable...What makes the book stand out is its wealth of historical detail." Elizabeth Kolbert, The New Yorker
The history of the twentieth century is most often told through its world wars, the rise and fall of communism, or its economic upheavals. In his startling book, J. R. McNeill gives us our first general account of what may prove to be the most significant dimension of the twentieth century: its environmental history. To a degree unprecedented in human history, we have refashioned the earth's air, water, and soil, and the biosphere of which we are a part. Based on exhaustive research, McNeill's storya compelling blend of anecdotes, data, and shrewd analysisnever preaches: it is our definitive account.
This is a volume in The Global Century Series (general editor, Paul Kennedy).
