The Uninhabitable Earth
[London], Allen Lane, (2019). The first British edition, signed by the author. This book is Wallace-Wells' extrapolation of his 2017 article for New York magazine, depicting the worst case scenarios of climate change. The American edition carried the subtitle "Life After Warming"; this edition is subtitled "A Story of the Future," which, given that many of the catastrophic changes underway will play out within a single generation, may be the most optimistic phrase in the book. Pages mildly age-toned; near fine in a near fine dust jacket with minor surface soiling. Rare signed, in any first printing. [#036830] $275

All books are first printings of first editions or first American editions unless otherwise noted.
