Paul Harrison

    1 janvier 1945

    Paul Harrison tire parti de sa riche expérience acquise au sein du système de justice pénale britannique, principalement en tant qu'agent de police. Son étroite collaboration avec l'Unité des sciences comportementales du FBI lui a donné un aperçu unique et remarquable de l'esprit de certains des criminels les plus violents du monde. En tant qu'auteur, il s'est largement concentré sur le true crime, bien qu'il se soit récemment aventuré dans la fiction. Son écriture se distingue par son authenticité et sa profonde compréhension de la psychologie criminelle, offrant aux lecteurs un aperçu troublant mais fascinant des aspects les plus sombres de la psyché humaine.

      Harrison argues that population growth, rising consumption and damaging technologies have combined to bring on the biggest environmental crisis in human history. Just as crisis spurred the Agricultural and Industrial Revolutions, so it may the third revolution that is needed to achieve sustainable development. Harrison provides a bulletin on the state of the planet and the process of destruction, and a blueprint for the third revolution. Harrison is author of "Inside the Third World" and was the 1988 recipient of the UNEP Global 500 award for outstanding services to the environment. The book is being made into a TV documentary to coincide with publication.
