Seeing Our Planet Whole: A Cultural and Ethical View of Earth Observation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783319821351)

Harry Eyres has become one of the most eloquent advocates of the worldwide Slow movement. He holds an MA in English from Trinity College, Cambridge (where he was an Entrance and Senior Scholar), the Diploma de Estudios Hispanicos from Barcelona University and an MSc in Environmental Assessment and Evaluation from LSE, where he graduated with a Distinction. Having worked for leading newspapers and magazines as a theatre critic, wine writer and poetry editor, in 2004 he created the weekly Slow Lane column in FT Weekend, which ran for eleven years until April 2015. Slow Lane covered cultural and environmental themes and consistently advocated a less consumption-focussed lifestyle. Eyres is also the author of The Beginner's Guide to Plato's The Republic (Hodder & Stoughton), the memoir Horace and Me: Life Lessons from an Ancient Poet (Bloomsbury: short-listed for the PEN/Ackerley Prize in 2014), and several books on wine. He lives in London.
