Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Softcover. Condition: Near fine. First edition. Inscribed by the editor and one contributor on the half-title page: "To Norman, with my very best wishes, Tony Wolbarst"; "For the next century! Michael H. Robinson, April 1992." Uncommon signed. A book that "assembles in one volume a record of the primary concerns of eleven of the world's leaders in conservation, ecology, and public policy," derived from a lecture series at the Environment Protection Agency. Other prominent contributors include Ralph Nader, Barry Commoner, Jacques Cousteau, Paul Ehrlich, Lester Brown, and Carl Sagan. With a foreword by Thomas Lovejoy. Each chapter (lecture) at its rear includes the questions received from the audience and the speaker's answers to them, which is a neat inclusion. Wolbarst is physicist who worked for the EPA, and Robinson was a zoologist who directed the National Zoo. A very near fine paperback with just a few pinprick-size scratches to rear wrap.
