The World Without Us: A Conversation with Alan Weisman
|
 The World Without Us © St. Martin's Press |
Date/Time:
Wednesday, September 5, 2007
7:00pm
Overview:
The Nature Conservancy of New York, New York City Audubon, and the Writers Voice welcome you to a discussion and book signing by Alan Weisman, one of the most esteemed science writers of our time, as he celebrates the release of his latest book, The World Without Us.
Stepping back from the overheated environmental debates of the day, Weisman offers an utterly original approach to questions of humanity's impact on the planet: he asks us to envision our Earth, without us.
Weisman will talk about his experiences writing The World Without Us, his thoughts on the current environmental atmosphere, and answer questions from the audience.
A book sale and signing will follow.
A joint program with New York City Audubon and the Westside YMCA Writer's Group.
