5.0 out of 5 stars An import early work on the environmental crisis, January 12, 2004
This review is from: The Closing Circle: Nature, Man, and Technology (Mass Market Paperback)
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
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 .
