Review Of "The Future Of Life," By Edward O. Wilson, Bryan Erickson
The University of New Hampshire Law Review
[Excerpt] "It is refreshing to read an environmental diatribe where the writer has both the authority of a world expert and a willingness to compromise to pursue realistic solutions. Wilson is a Harvard biology professor, two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, and a director of the Nature Conservancy.
