Dust. The History of the Modern World in a Trillion Dust Particles

Dust. The History of the Modern World in a Trillion Dust Particles

Dust travels across continents, outlining the history of our world and its transformations. From the American Dust Bowl of the 1930s to the ice sheets of Greenland today, through the dusty seabed of the now-dried Aral Sea in Uzbekistan and... the radioactive fallout from Chernobyl, this book explores what dust is and what impact it has on our lives. The modern world, after all, is bound together and permeated by dust. Within the pages of the book, we will meet people who have to live amid sandstorms, activists who have challenged dust and are trying to combat it, and those who have been displaced from their usual habitats.
