Best known for his #1 international bestseller The Weather Makers,
Tim Flannery is one of the world's most influential scientists, a
foremost expert on climate change credited with discovering more
species than Charles Darwin. But Flannery didn't come to his
knowledge overnight. With its selection of exhilarating essays and
articles written over the past thirty years, An Explorer's Notebook
charts the evolution of a young scientist doing fieldwork in remote
locations into the major thinker who has changed the way we think
about global warming. In these thirty pieces, Flannery writes about
his journeys in the jungles of New Guinea and Indonesia, about the
extraordinary people he met and the species he discovered. He
writes about matters as wide-ranging as love, insects, population,
water, and the stresses we put on the environment. He shows us how
we can better predict our future by understanding the profound
history of life on Earth. And he chronicles the seismic shift in
the world's attitude toward climate change. An Explorer's Notebook
is classic Flannery--wide-ranging, eye-opening science, conveyed
with richly detailed storytelling.
