How would the world change if human beings vanished from the earth right now, for good? What would the planet be like in a day, a week, a month...a millennium? Just how long will our greatest achievements and our biggest mistakes last after we are gone? To discover the answers, Alan Weisman looks to areas of the world that are currently unoccupied and speaks to experts in fields ranging from nuclear physics to archaeology. He reveals how the natural world would react to our disappearance and wrestles with some of the key concerns of our time to offer an intriguing glimpse of the real legacy of our existence on the planet. 'Compelling...jammed packed with fascinating 'what if's" - "Guardian". 'The results of this huge thought-experiment are both fascinating and surprising' - "Daily Mail". 'Flesh-creepingly good fun...an expert-led fantasia of the post-human planet' - "Independent". 'A wonderful idea...This is a terrific book' - "Scotsman".
Alan Weisman is a journalist and the author of numerous books. His writing has won several major awards and has appeared in The New York Times Magazine and the Los Angeles Times Magazine.

评分 评分2007年12月14日下午2:00与作者北京国图(中关村南路)学术报告厅亲密接触吧。美国亚利桑那大学学者艾伦·韦斯曼受邀来京演讲,有兴趣就去参加吧。应该还不错。
评分不得不承认这是一个舍弃了小我大胆的构想,但也是一个饱含人文关怀的末世寓言。艾伦•韦斯曼在《没有我们的世界/THE WORLD WITHOUT US》中给了我们一个人类从地球突然消失的提前假设。这个假设很容易纵容我们忘却人类是如何暴虐伤害地球并最终导致消亡的残酷事实,跳出个人存...
