 | World Fire by Stephen J. Pyne
World Fire is the story of how fire and humans have evolved in concert with each other. The prevalence of humans is largely attributable to their control over fire, and the distribution and characteristics of fire have become progressively more dependent on humans. The two are inseparable, and together they have repeatedly remade the landscape. Pyne follows fire into the contemporary world of unsettled ecology, where there is too much fire in the wrong places but where unwarranted suppression of fire threatens to be as damaging to the earth as its promiscuous misuse. Obsessive fire control has become itself a disordering process, and in much of the world it is the control of fire that is out of control. Pyne looks at the future of this elemental force and argues that eliminating it will not save the planet from destruction but will only abolish the regenerative powers that it once had.
