About the product

The author Gerard Piel has undertaken an impressive task to examine the interplay between natural and social systems and the effect on human development. In-depth coverage has been given to the areas of biology and humanity, the biosphere, the human condition, energy, agricultural revolution, industrial revolution and human development. 'If world population is to be stabilized, the industrial revolution of poor countries must be accelerated', stated the author, 'and to keep this only one world, the exploiter of nature must become steward.'
