From the Paper:

"The book uses poetic and eloquent language to describe how the balance of life on Earth works so perfectly, if only we will let it. Hartmann takes a look back in time to illustrate why we are the very way we are, then explains how we have ravaged the Earth, and what is our hope for the future. The book is broken down roughly into thirds, with each third following this format of past, present, and future. Hartmann's thesis is simple: hope for the future. He believes by understanding how we made the Earth such a mess, we can make the right choices to make it better in the future, because we already have all the essential tools. The book is at once hopeful and frightening, soothing and motivating."
