After the fierce warnings and grim predictions of The Weather Makers and An Inconvenient Truth, acclaimed journalist and national bestselling author Chris Turner finds hope in the search for a sustainable future. Point of no return: The chilling phrase has become the ubiquitous mantra of ecological doomsayers, a troubling headline above stories of melting permafrost and receding ice caps, visions of catastrophe and fears of a problem with no solution. Daring to step beyond the rhetoric of panic and despair, The Geography of Hope points to the bright light at the end of this very dark tunnel. Suggested price $34.95. Our Price $20.97. Save 40%.

Science is truly amazing, but not always beautiful. Some things are, well, just icky, sticky and gross! Not to mention downright smelly. If you want to venture into this world, curiosity may not be enough. You may need a strong stomach and a bit of courage. Nature isn't always for the faint of heart. Yet you'll find that even the most bizarre behavior has a purpose. It may seem gross but without it, something in the world just wouldn't be working right. You can get acquainted with such oddities as the zorilla, the komodo dragon, the moray eel, the durian fruit (talk about smelly) and the corpse flower. What about the stink bug, the dung beetle or the assassin bug? They're all here waiting to gross you out! Original. New softcover. 2008.
