The decline and fall of the human empire : why our species is on the edge of extinction
Gee, Henry, 1962-2026
Books, Manuscripts
For the first time in over ten millennia, the rate of human population growth is slowing down. The global population is forecast to begin declining in the second half of this century, and in 10,000 years' time our species will likely be extinct. In 'The Decline and Fall of the Human Empire', Henry Gee shows how we arrived at this crucial moment in history, beginning his story deep in the palaeolithic past and charting our dramatic rise from one species of human among many to the most dominant animal ever to live on Earth.
