In this concise yet wide-ranging book, Stephen J. Pyne?named by Science magazine as ?the world's leading authority on the history of fire??explores the surprising dynamics of fire before humans, fire and human origins, aboriginal economies of hunting and foraging, agricultural and pastoral uses of fire, fire ceremonies, fire as an idea and a technology, and industrial fire.In this revised and expanded edition, Pyne looks to the future of fire as a constant, defining presence on Earth. A new chapter explores the importance of fire in the twenty-first century, with special attention to its role in the Anthropocene, or what he posits might equally be called the Pyrocene." -- Provide by publisher 410 0$aWeyerhaeuser environmental book. 606 $aFire$xHistory 615 0$aFire$xHistory. 676 $a541.361 700 $aPyne$b Stephen J.$f1949-$0440564 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793783303321 996 $aFire$93745943 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$71.25$u10/15/2019$5Soc
