Pro současnost, kdy se za nejvlivnější planetární faktor obecně považuje lidská činnost, se vžil termín antropocén. Avšak podle legendárního myslitele a vědce Jamese Lovelocka už tato éra končí. Lidstvo totiž vstoupilo do věku novacénu — éry, kterou definují superpočítače a umělá inteligence; doby, z níž vzejdou mnohem schopnější „bytosti“ než člověk. Ale i tento nový druh bude potřebovat zdravou Zemi a její funkční teplotní regulaci. Stejně jako člověk. Podobně jako mnohokrát... Technologická vize budoucnosti od autora teorie Gaia.

ISBN: 9780465041695 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The key insight of Gaia Theory is that the entire Earth functions as a single living super-organism. But according to James Lovelock, the theory's originator, that organism is now sick. It is running a fever born of increased atmospheric greenhouse gases. Earth will adjust to these stresses, but the human race faces a severe test. It is already too late, Lovelock says, to prevent the global climate from "flipping" into an entirely new equilibrium that will threaten civilization as we know it. But we can do much to save humanity. In the tradition of Silent Spring, this is a call to...

In this classic work that continues to inspire many readers, Jim Lovelock puts forward his idea that the Earth functions as a single organism.

In contrast to conventional belief that life is passive in the face of threats to its existence, the book explores the hypothesis that the Earth's living matter influences air, ocean, and rock to form a complex, self-regulating system that has the capacity to keep the Earth a fit place for life.
Since... In this classic work that continues to inspire many readers, Jim Lovelock puts forward his idea that the Earth functions as a single organism. Written...
