Reviews
In his crisply written new book...Dan Egan sounds alarms on both the scarcity and overabundance sides of the phosphorus-human equation., [Egan] builds a story of innovation, failure, recovery, and looming catastrophe...[A] deep humanity resides in his writing., An enjoyable, lively, and thought-provoking read...[P]eppered with fascinating details...I highly recommend The Devil's Element, which presents an easily digestible introduction to a major global issue., Disquieting...A Fine Account, Worthy of Fertile Discussion, of Yet Another Environmental Disaster., A revelatory book that exposes human use of [phosphorus] as a double-edged sword capable of sustaining and destroying life., In the tradition of environmental clarion calls like Silent Spring and The Sixth Extinction...The Devil's Element urges readers to confront another quietly unfolding disaster...Egan, a two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist for his work chronicling the threats facing the Great Lakes, has a knack for telling big, unwieldy stories through absorbing personal narratives.
