| Publisher Description: Biophilia is Edward O. Wilson's most personal book, an evocation of his own response to nature and an eloquent statement of the conservation ethic. Wilson argues that our natural affinity for life--biophilia--is the very essence of our humanity and binds us to all other living species. |
