People who inspire me

I want to share with Earth Protect users a list of people and their publications who have inspired me through the years. This is only a partial list - these are the books that I live with, and visit again and again.

Every time I pick up one of these old friends, I find a new angle to marvel about and a new hope about our role on this earth.Read on to find out what inspires me. I hope that maybe one of these individuals will inspire you through their own words.
