An Invaluable Book

An invaluable book. Daunting in scope, the research and organization contained in "Earth at a Crossroads" are extremely impressive."Earth at a Crossroads" gives readers the choice of two alternative paths to the future - one of unsustainable competition which we are currently following, or one of global partnership based on equitable and sustainable economic and social development.Chapter after chapter, Harmut Bossel provides concrete and attainable plans of action for those concerned enough to act. Far and away one of the better books on sustainable development available and an invaluable reference for anyone interested in acting to bring about a sustainable future.
