5.0 out of 5 stars An import early work on the environmental crisis, January 12, 2004
Written over thirty years ago and now dated, The Closing Circle was one of the early important books on the environmental crisis. As a neophyte to this issue, one who was interested in gaining a better understanding and perspective, I still found this book profoundly useful.

5.0 out of 5 stars An unbeatable and fundamental book!, October 28, 2004
This review is from: The Closing Circle: The Environmental Crisis and Its Cure (Hardcover)
Despite Barry Commoner wrote this famous essay thirty years ago , you will be surprised about the fact these reflections have not aged a bit . Commoner is not only a worried investigator about the environment but also too a smart thinker , and when these two qualities join the result is the sum of all your satisfied demands and requirements .
Commoner makes a careful study of the first effects of the radioactive clouds , and clarifies the cycle in one of the chapters . His pen is clear sugestive and powerful .
This book is a must for all those are really worried about this unfinished and still present serious concern around the world conversation motive .
This text appeared just several months before that famous Rome Club Report of 1972 when the first voices of warning and alert were raising all around the globe .
