Easy-to-read, interesting, informative
This is a very informative and up-to-date book which makes me read right to the end, without stopping. Each chapter prompts me to read the next one. It deals very in depth about the current geopolitical issues affecting ourworld today - the air, the sea, the space and technology. It also gives agood case study about Antartica. very few geopolitical books that I haveread has made such a deep analysis on such immediate issues. Not toointimidating for the reader who has little geopolitical know-how because ofits explanation of current concepts and definitions (in the first chapter)as well as a glossary of key terms used. ...

One person CAN make a difference
Perhaps you're familiar with the name Benton MacKaye (1879-1975); at the very least, you've heard of the Appalachian Trail.You might see the title of this book and say, "Oh, OK, he was the guy who thought up the idea for a footpath from Maine to Georgia.Big deal.I've never stepped on it, so why should I care about him?"Well, without Benton MacKaye, we probably wouldn't have the Trail.We might not have a Wilderness Society, the Wilderness Act of 1964, the National Trail Systems Act of 1968, or the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act.We might not have Shenandoah National Park in Virginia or the Great Smoky Mountains National Park straddling the Tennessee-North Carolina border.We could instead have just interstate highways crowning the entire length of the eastern mountain range.We could conceivably have uninterrupted suburbia from the Atlantic coastline to the Midwest, with little consideration given to the mountains or any natural area in between.Benton MacKaye might very well be one of the most influential 20th-century American environmentalists you've never heard of.Read more
