RaveThe Washington Post\"If climate change is, as this book successfully argues, a game-changer for everyone, everywhere, all the time, then let’s reflect that in the discourse ... David Wallace-Wells offers a good starting point. His book, The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming, scares us with tales from a future climate-changed world that transcend climate science. Not since Bill McKibben’s The End of Nature 30 years ago have we been told what climate change will mean in such vivid terms ... the dynamic of optimism vs. pessimism over the future [is] something Wallace-Wells deals with well ... The most interesting part of this excellent book is where Wallace-Wells moves on to wonder whether this pattern of climate denial might continue into a \'hothouse Earth\' of supercyclones, megafloods, droughts without end and killer heat waves.\

PositiveThe Washington PostMann is a compelling and forensic analyst of big tipping points in human affairs ... Mann is commendably even-handed in his treatment of the genius and frailties of both Vogt and Borlaug. But as their stories play out, his irritation grows with Vogt’s belief that almost every problem is at root about human numbers. He grows disgusted, too, at the prophet’s policy prescriptions.
