Beschreibung:
In 'The Earth as Modified by Human Action', George P. Marsh warns of the dangers of man's interference with the natural world. From the removal of forests and loss of topsoil to the salinization of irrigated land and destruction of ecosystems, Marsh illustrates the devastating consequences of human activity on the planet. Drawing on his experiences abroad, Marsh offers practical solutions for restoring damaged regions and calls for caution in all large-scale operations. His insightful observations and urgent message remain just as relevant today as they did in 1864 when the book was first published.
