Críticas
"[Flannery] is a cultural landmark. . . . Long may he write. . . . Enthusiasm, wonder, the love of the chase, are all part of Flannery's science, as is the writerly engine of not knowing how things are going to turn out until the business is done. . . . Flannery's writerly art stirs the imagination to pay attention."--Australian "Richly detailed accounts of his work and life as an explorer."--Booklist "Highly readable. . . . In this book, Flannery offers readers insight into his extraordinary career. . . . Accessible, provocative and well worth investigating."--Kirkus Reviews "[Flannery's] reviews are a joy to read."--Publishers Weekly "It's . . . an ongoing pleasure to review Flannery's books. . . . Take away all the other things Flannery has done in his 19th-century-style crowded life and you still have one hell of a writer. . . . There's a tone of undisguised wonder running through virtually all the pieces in this latest collection."--Open Letters Monthly
Reseña del editor
Best known today for The Weather Makers, his #1 international bestseller, 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 25 years, An Explorer's Notebook charts the evolution of a young scientist doing fieldwork in remote locations to the major thinker who has changed the way we think about global warming. In over 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. "Tim Flannery is in the league of all-time great explorers like Dr. David Livingstone."--Sir David Attenborough. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
