In this impassioned plea for the preservation of the Earth's biological heritage, one of the world's leading scientists shows how conservation and responsible capitalism can join to ensure long-term economic well-being and preserve biological diversity. Edward O. Wilson, winner of two Pulitzer Prizes, lovingly describes the natural treasures we are about to lose forever û and presents a plan to save them. This is both a moving portrayal of our biosphere and a guidebook for protecting all its species, including our own.
