"Like the land it protects, the Antarctic Treaty is dissolving. The
world's last unstripped asset, Antarctica is in danger of becoming a
free-for-all; oil reconnaissance teams intent on mass extraction,
adventure travellers trailing waste across the tundra, and multinational
interests covertly vying for influence. But a new radical
environmentalist group is determined to show humanity that Antarctica
cannot be plundered like the rest of the world. Whatever it takes.
Antarctica:
an eco-thriller, a romance, and a passionate study of a desolate
continent. Against a majestic backdrop, multi-award-winning author Kim
Stanley Robinson paints his latest big picture by focusing on the
personal triumphs and tragedies of the innocents, the activists, and the
ruthless exploiters who are fighting their version of the future for
Earth's last great wilderness."--Fantastic Fiction.
