The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History' by Elizabeth Kolbert

The book focuses on the ongoing mass extinction of species that is occurring as a result of human activities such as deforestation, global warming, and pollution.

It offers a comprehensive analysis of the various causes of this extinction, as well as the potential consequences of failing to address it.

It studies five major extinction events in Earth's history, including the asteroid impact that killed the dinosaurs.

Kolbert examines the scientific research that shows the current extinction rate is unprecedented in the history of the planet.

She also looks at the myriad of ways that humans are contributing to the extinction rate, from overfishing and habitat destruction to the introduction of invasive species.

Kolbert discusses the implications of this extinction on the global environment, as well as the potential for a mass extinction to occur in the near future.

She also considers the implications for humanity, as humans are dependent upon the many species that are disappearing.
