《第六次滅絕：非同尋常的歷史》

Author： Elizabeth Kolbart

Elizabeth Kolbart is celebrated journalist， author and Heinz award winner in year 2010 and has worked for two prestigious publishers New York Times and The New Yorker magazine. Kolbart's recent book \"The Sixth Extinction： An Unnatural History\" traces the footprints of humans and tells how we the humans are causing the sixth mass extinction from the face of Earth as there have been five extinctions before and most renowned being the last one when dinosaurs were wiped from the face of the globe. She writes wittingly about the sixth one which is being caused by humans. She weaves together stories of mass and single specie extinctions， competing scientific theories through history， and personal experiences while she was doing her recent research and moved through continents. Her way of storytelling is unique and she supports her claims with scientific and historical data disparaging all the myths that have existed about human involvement towards climate change and its role in speeding up these extinctions. Kolbart uses her journalistic approaches to make it easy read for common readers and presents complex scientific details in such pleasant and vivid way that reader barely gets the feeling of reading a book on a complex scientific issue which is of great importance to everybody’s existence but is neglected by most. Her early works， especially， \"Field Notes from a Catastrophe： Man， Nature， and Climate Change\" are also nice reads and have received applauds from both readers and critics.
