Autore del motto imagine globally, act in the neighborhood, il biologo René Dubos affidò a questo libro il compito di trasmettere una visione creativa, illuminata e rivoluzionaria delle lotte a difesa dell’ambiente, portando l. a. riflessione su terreni nuovi e spesso paradossali, come l. a. miopia evolutiva di un adattamento «eccessivo» alle trasformazioni («L’uomo può sopravvivere, moltiplicarsi e generare ricchezza materiale in un ambiente sovrappopolato, ripetitivo e totalmente inquinato purché rinunci ai suoi diritti individuali, tolleri alcune forme di degrado e non si dispiaccia a vivere in un contesto di atrofia emotiva») o come il grande potenziale degli «ambienti umanizzati», a discapito dell’inutile utopia degli ambienti naturali incontaminati, los angeles cui devastazione considerava inevitabile. in keeping with quanto deluso dall’inquinamento e dal degrado ambientale provocato dall’urbanizzazione e dall’uso eccessivo delle tecnologie moderne, Dubos period convinto che l’uso responsabile di scienza e progresso potesse invertire il pattern distruttivo. Un animale così umano, che vinse nel 1969 il Premio Pulitzer in line with los angeles saggistica, ha rappresentato un testo di riferimento according to le battaglie ambientaliste dagli anni Settanta a oggi. Questa è los angeles sua prima traduzione italiana.
