aux profondeurs de la planète, du rayonnement fossile aux mystérieux neutrinos, que d'étranges phénomènes ont contribué à la complexité du monde ! Mais sa richesse et sa beauté sont désormais mis en péril sur Terre par l'Homme, devenu la principale menace pour son environnement, pour la biodiversité, et finalement pour lui-même. Comment concilier la belle-histoire de l'Univers et la moins-belle-histoire de l'Humanité ? Nous offrant l'une et l'autre en parallèle, Hubert Reeves met son talent de conteur de science au service de notre nécessaire prise de conscience. Sans nous masquer la gravité de la crise écologique, il relève les signes d'une réaction qui nous permet d'espérer un avenir plus vert.

She recognizes the PR benefits of puppy-throwing. She has deeply considered the moral quandaries presented by sea-slug penises. She even knows her own bra size (really, please stop asking). Showcases the many lessons learned from over a decade of column writing. For example, you don't want to piss off the jazz enthusiasts. And you really, really don't want to piss off the homeopaths. Along with these thorny issues, Southey has covered the most pressing topics of our times, from the struggles of having an unusually handsome prime minister to the impending dystopic future faced by the Trump United States and Casino Resort. 2017.
