When it was first published in 1979, the ideas in Gaia: A New Look at Life on Earth seemed startlingly original. James Lovelock's theory saw the evolution of life and the evolution of the Earth as a single, tightly-coupled process from which the self-regulation of the environment emerges. In the years since its publication, many of Lovelock's predictions have come true, and his theory has become one of the most hotly-debated topics within scientific circles.
