It also helps to clarify what the possibilities and limitations are for future action. This is a subject of wide interest because today we are facing a great many environmental issues, many of which may appear unconnected. Yet all these issues are part of our biosphere. For making plans for the future and addressing our long-term survival and well-being, an integrated knowledge of our biosphere and its history is therefore indispensable.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey Features\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDocuments what the biosphere is, and what our position as humans within it is today.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribes how the biosphere has become the way it is.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSummarizes the novel simple theoretical model proposed in the book, and thus, how the biosphere functions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePredicts what the possibilities and limitations are for future human action\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmphasizes how simple but careful observations can lead to far-reaching theoretical implications.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fred Spier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032230401\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032230405\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/06\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.58d","brand":"Fred Spier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075492999423,"sku":"9781032230405","price":89.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aa83c925-1a7e-4f21-be8c-ad33217cc7d3.jpg?v=1685459748","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/how-the-biosphere-works-fred-spier-9781032230405","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
