Sobre este artículo
New York: Penguin Books, 1993. Paperback. Very Good. 8vo - over 7? - 9?" tall. Trade Paperback in Very Good Condition. Historian Clive Ponting shows how the story of the fall of Rome-- with the ever expanding population and ever evolving technological complexity, finally exhausted its natural resources and had an ecological breakdown that doomed its society--is repeated throughout history all over the world, from Sumeria to ancient Egypt to Easter Island. Human beings prosper by exploiting the natural resources available to them until those resources can no longer sustain them, which leads to a decline and eventual collapse of that society. Book is clean and unmarked with slight wear to cover edges, pages toned, quite clean, no markings. 430 pages. 7.75 x 5.25 inches. 1993, Penguin Books, New York.
