What would the earth look like if humans suddenly disappeared? An audacious new book imagines a people-free planet, and restores our sense of awe.
  • After Man

    It is calming to read such a longterm perspective, and really takes the mind off of the day-to-day horrors of the past few years.

    Another good book is 'After Man', which is a (dated) fanciful look at animal evolution 50million years in the future. It gives hope that nature will create new animals in the future - though the wolflike rats gave me serious nightmares as a kid.
