Petrus has other problems to contend with, like surviving on a floating archipelago of ice, and then walking 2200 kilometers through a post-Apocalyptic world. At the same time, Petrus will discover something of a true social and biological paradise. Herein lies the paradox of a world where one species – ours – is facing extinction, while others – many genetically re-engineered – are enjoying a biodiversity renaissance..With a Foreword by William Shatner, this provocative, lyrical, deeply philosophical work of fiction explores the ethical limits of science and technology, and the future of all life on earth.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | | 关键词 | biosphere; Anthropocene; Doomsday Clock; climate change; pandemics; global pandemic | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-97683-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-97685-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-97683-5 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
