Sinopsis

Climate change is the biggest moral problem of our time, as people who have contributed little to the pollution responsible for global warming are increasingly understood to be most vulnerable to the shifting environment around them. ""Boiling Point"" explores the lives of South Africans affected by this phenomenon: a rooibos tea farmer in the Northern Cape, a traditional fisherman on the West Coast, a farmer in the centre of the Free State's maize belt, a political refugee in Pietermaritzburg and a sangoma (traditional healer) in Limpopo mining country. These communities live on a knife-edge because of poverty and their dependence on an already capricious natural environment. ""Boiling Point"" considers what might happen to them as normal weather trends are amplified in a hotter world.

Descripci�n de la librer�a

Chapter 1 trades out of three premises that are all in the Johannesburg area. Our emphasis is providing quality books at highly competitive prices. A large (and continuously growing) selection of our books are listed on various websites on the internet. We post on a daily basis to all parts of the world. All our books are parcelled in tissue paper, bubble wrap, card board and strong brown paper. If the book has a dust jacket it is provided with a protective cellophane sleeve. We supply a tracking number on every parcel that we post. We specialise in Modern First Editions, Rhodesiana, Africana and other rare and out of print books. We are always looking to buy interesting and unusual books and libraries in Johannesburg and Cape Town. We are prepared to travel within the greater Johannesburg and Cape Town area if the quantity warrants it.
