James Lovelock: In Search of Gaia Hardcover - 2009
by John Gribbin; Mary Gribbin
From the rear cover
"This book is an homage to Lovelock. The Gribbins have spent time with him, looked at his personal archives with him, and obviously the book is coming out of a deep admiration for his work. The biographical chapters are interspersed with science chapters, including a good one on the history of our understanding of the greenhouse effect, and others that cover Earth's biogeochemical cycles."--Tyler Volk, author of CO2 Rising
"James Lovelock is one of the great thinkers of our time. His ideas and inventions have opened up new insights into our planet and the way it works, and the story behind them will appeal to a very wide audience. I am pleased to recommend this book."--Chris Rapley, director of the Science Museum, London
