About this book

Language: French

How did we get here? This is the nagging question we ask at each announcement of the disappearance of a species or depletion of natural resources. Our world in crisis needs an explanation and retracing of the history of human influence on nature to have a comprehensive and accurate view.

This global historical panorama, both accessible and exciting, contains a diverse set of documents, often unpublished:
- A world tour maps to understand the key moments and trends,
- Clear graphical representations of numerical data,
- Detailed chronologies
- Illustrations and relevant photos.

The conquest of the earth by early man, the great ancient empires, the political division of the world to the Renaissance and colonization, industrialization and mass production, consumerism and globalization, the rise of ecology and environmentalism are many periods and topics that this book masterfully questions to explain the challenges we face in terms of our heritage.

Summary in French:
Comment en sommes-nous arrivés là ? C’est la question lancinante que nous nous posons à chaque annonce de la disparition d’une espèce ou de l’épuisement de ressources naturelles. Notre monde en crise a besoin d’explication et de retracer l’histoire de l’influence de l’homme sur la nature pour en avoir une vision globale et précise.

Ce panorama historique mondial, à la fois accessible et passionnant, présente un ensemble de documents variés, souvent inédits :
– un tour du monde en cartes pour comprendre les moments clés et les grandes tendances,
– des représentations graphiques claires de données chiffrées,
– des chronologies détaillées,
– des illustrations et des photos pertinentes.

La conquête de la terre par les premiers hommes, les grands empires antiques, le partage politique du monde à la Renaissance et les colonisations, l’industrialisation et la production de masse, la société de consommation et la globalisation, l’essor de l’écologisme et de l’environnementalisme sont autant de périodes et de sujets que cet ouvrage interroge magistralement pour expliquer les enjeux auxquels nous devons faire face au regard de notre héritage.
