Elizabeth Kolbert was a New York Times reporter for fourteen years until she became a staff writer at the New Yorker in 1999. She is the author of Field Notes from a Catastrophe: A Frontline Report on Climate Change. She lives in Massachusetts with her husband and children. @ElizKolbert
Over the last half a billion years, there have been five mass extinctions of life on earth. Scientists around the world are currently monitoring the sixth, predicted to be the most devastating extinction event since the asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs. Elizabeth Kolbert combines brilliant field reporting, the history of ideas and the work of geologists, botanists and marine biologists to tell the gripping stories of a dozen species - including the Panamanian golden frog and the Sumatran rhino - some already gone, others at the point of vanishing. The sixth extinction is likely to be mankind's most lasting legacy and Elizabeth Kolbert's book urgently compels us to rethink the fundamental question of what it means to be human.

评分每个时代都会有自己的经典,而与此同时,某些经典也因其特质,可以超越时代,被人们久久传读。比如在环保领域,《寂静的春天》就是这样的作品。它展示的是20世纪蕾切尔•卡逊对于“春天”不再拥有勃勃生机的忧心忡忡。而这种担忧蔓延至今,则已经变成了更实在的,也更可怖...
