Our Living Earth: A Story of People, Ecology, and Preservation

160 pp. | Abrams | November, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8109-7132-5 $24.95
(4) 4-6 Translated by Gita Daneshjoo. Illustrated by David Giraudon. Text by Isabelle Delannoy. Arthus-Bertrand's striking aerial photographs of the world's people and landscapes convincingly prove the importance of environmental preservation; less useful are bold-type facts that read like environmental disaster headlines. Familiar sustainable solutions are proposed to re-balance nature in the face of increasing world population and its consequent ecological imbalances. The book's busy scrapbook-style layout is hard to follow, and sources aren't included. Websites. Glos., ind.
