Download or read book The Dismal State of the Great Lakes written by James P. Ludwig, Ph. D and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Ludwig tells powerful stories about places, people and environmental issues. He narrates with unfl inching honesty his experiences investigating and tracking down the culprits in continuing environmental contamination. He rises to meet the beauty and grace of the Great Lakes with lively tales of decades out on their waters as a researcher. This book is an indispensable part of the Great Lakes literary canon.” Dave Dempsey, author of “On the Brink: The Great Lakes in the 21st Century” and “The Blanchard Connection”. “Ludwig has written a monumental compendium about the largest source of fresh water in the world, a life support system whose function he reveals has been under siege. It refl ects what happened as peer reviewed science, public health, and common sense were set aside and corporate-creep infected the chambers where policy decisions are made. It also parallels the same problem where humanity is now under siege from a growing list of epidemics of endocrine-related disorders – the problem fi rst reported by Ludwig and his cronies back in the early 80s.” Theo Colborn, Ph.D President, The Endocrine Disruption Exchange

Download or read book The Late Great Lakes written by William Ashworth and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Late, Great Lakes is a powerful indictment of man's carelessness, ignorance, and apathy toward the Great Lakes. With the longest continuous coastline in the United States, they hold one-fifth of the world's freshwater supply. Author William Ashworth presents a compelling history of the Great Lakes, from their formation in the Ice Age, to their "discovery" by Samuel de Champlian in 1615, and, finally, to their impending death in our time. Ashworth systematically deals with the wild life that once flourished in the region-beaver, salmon, whitefish, and trout-and describes the threatening elements which have displaced them-the predatory sea lamprey, the alewives, toxic waste, and volatile solids.
