Summary
Renowned paleoecologist Barnosky shows how global warming is fundamentally changing the natural world and its creatures. Plants and animals that have followed the same rhythms for millennia are suddenly being confronted with a world they're unprepared for--and adaptation usually isn't an option.--From publisher description
