Field Notes from a Catastrophe by Elizabeth Kolbert
Field Notes from a Catastrophe

upwardroy2005, October 1, 2006

This is an incisive and timely book on a crucial planetary issue. I saw the movie :An Inconvenient Truth" while reading this book. The experiece of both was enhanced by the other. My paradigm has been shifted. I have a moral imperative to reduce my environmental impact after reading this book. There are virtually thousands of books and websites devoted to this subject. Elizabeth Kolbert uses her journalistic skills to package and present the most pertinent information in a way that the layperson can comprehend.
