Biografisk notat
Edward O. Wilson (1929-2021) was the author of more than thirty books, including Anthill, Letters to a Young Scientist, and The Conquest of Nature. The winner of two Pulitzer Prizes, Wilson was a professor emeritus at Harvard University and lived with his wife in Lexington, Massachusetts."As an outline of our terrible ecological plight, it [<em>Half-Earth</em>] does a first-class job. Wilson is, if nothing else, a gifted wordsmith and <em>Half-Earth</em> is a much-needed antidote to the views of those who assert that our worldly woes are exaggerated and that everything is tickety-boo in the Garden of Eden."

- The Lancet,
"[Wilson's] book... is provocative in all the best ways..."
