'By applying medical science to our planet as a whole, James Lovelock, visionary creator of the Gaia Theory, gives us an exciting new way of understanding the frailties and strengths of planet Earth. . . . Lovelock expands his original concept to ask perhaps the most pressing question of all: if the planet is alive, what is its health? . . . humans hardly need worry about destroying the Earth, but the Earth may rid itself of a species that threatens too vigorously to alter the conditions that make life possible.' To quote Lovelock directly, 'We are not managers or masters of the Earth, we are just shop stewards, workers chosen, because of our intelligence, as representatives for the others, the rest of life of our planet.'
