Anthony, Piers: BUT WHAT OF EARTH?

The Earth of the not-too-distant future is a dying world - overcrowded, polluted; its resources are almost exhausted; its people grow sickly. Then, at the eleventh hour, an amazing scientific breakthrough makes possible the impossible - escape to the stars! The stampede to leave - to open up new worlds and found new civilizations creates a heady delirium for most. But what of Earth? Those left behind must build a life for themselves out of the shambles of their world ... or die.
