Paperback. Condizione: Good. The first volume of Nobel Peace Laureate Elie Wiesel's passionate, poignant, and moving two-volume autobiography, detailing his imprisonment in Auschwitz, his life in Paris, and his journey to writing the acclaimed memoir Night This edition contains sixteen pages of black-and-white photographs. "From the abyss of the death camps Wiesel has come as a messenger to mankind--not with a message of hate and revenge, but with one of brotherhood and atonement."--From the citation for the 1986 Nobel Peace Prize All Rivers Run to the Sea opens with a child's entry into hell. We see the young Elie Wiesel torn from a traditional and loving Jewish family life in a Carpathian village and dragged through the horrors of Auschwitz and Buchenwald. We see him emerge a bloodless adolescent, a mute spirit, with no homeland. At war's end, parents and youngest sister vanished, life begins anew in a French orphanage. Wiesel recalls his struggle with his God as well as his intense sorties into the study of philosophy, the Jewish Scriptures, and the lore of the mystics. He remembers the gradual rekindling of old dreams. He is comforted by the survival of his two sisters. We see him becoming once again fully alive. And in the late 1950s, inspired to write his first book, Night, he finds at last his voice as a witness for the Holocaust's martyrs and survivors, and as a spokesman for humanity.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. A new edition of the veteran science writer's groundbreaking work on the world's water crisis, featuring all-new reporting from the most recent global flashpoints Throughout history, rivers have been our foremost source of fresh water for both agriculture and individual consumption, but looming water scarcity threatens to cut global food production and cause conflict and unrest. In this visionary book, Fred Pearce takes readers around the world on a tour of the world's rivers to provide our most complete portrait yet of the growing global water crisis and its ramifications for us all. With vivid on-the-ground reporting, Pearce deftly weaves together the scientific, economic, and historic dimensions of the water crisis, showing us its complex origins--from waste to wrong-headed engineering projects to high-yield crop varieties that have saved developing countries from starvation but are now emptying their water reserves. Pearce argues that the solution to the growing worldwide water shortage is more efficiency and a new water ethic based on managing the water cycle for maximum social benefit rather than narrow self-interest.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Credited with galvanising an entire generation of environmentalists in the 60's, David Brower, the highly respected "archdruid" of the modern environmental movement, recalls with wit and wisdom his 50 years of controversial activism and offers an inspired strategy for the next generation of "those who would save the Earth". In this intelligent and engaging chronicle of his years as an agitator for the planet, Brower points out the irony that since the first Earth Day 25 years ago, we've lost one-seventh of the world's productive land to pollution, clear-cutting, and pavement-and our population has doubled! From the politics of preserving the environment and how to use New York-style PR to save tigers and dolphins, to reengineering cities, the future of hypercars, and his vision for the Earth Corps, Brower takes us on a sweeping journey of what has been and what could be if we apply CPR (Conservation, Preservation, Restoration) to our wounded world. Printed on entirely tree-free kenaf paper, Let the Mountains Talk, Let the Rivers Run follows its own prescription for saving the world's forests.…
