Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In his first sixty days, President Phil Chase intends to prove he can change the world. A highly topical, taut, witty and entertaining science thriller. By the time Phil Chase is elected President of the United States, the world's climate is well on the way to irrevocable change. It could be that a mass extinction event is beginning. A lot of the big mammals tigers, gorillas may already be in their last moments. But now even the Pentagon agrees that climate change is a bigger threat than terrorism, Phil Chase has the trillion-dollar military budget to call on for the technologically sublime task of saving the world. Frank Vanderwal, in the office of Presidential science advisor, finds something reassuring about the world being so messed up. It makes his own life look like part of a trend. He's been homeless for a year, the ex-husband of the love of his life did permanent injury to his nose probably his brain with a punch, and the love of his life has had to go into hiding from the secret service, which has Frank under surveillance, too but meanwhile there's the world to save. Frank's a scientist. He has to save the world so that science can proceed, obviously. This has become known as the Frank Principle. China is close to meltdown, the security agencies are in overdrive, carbon figures are close to cooking the world and the team has sixty days to establish a new reality.

Hardcover. First edition. Near Fine in Near Fine Embossed Pictorial Dust Jacket with original price ($25.00). Flat signed by author on title page. A widely praised novel from Robinson, winner of both the Hugo and Nebula Awards. The novel focuses on the the consequences of global warming, both on a global level, and as it affects the main characters: several employees of the National Science Foundation and those close to them. Buddhist philosophy is one of Robinson's recurring themes, represented here by the agency of ambassadors from Khembalung, a fictional Buddhist micro-state located on an offshore island in the Ganges delta. Their state is threatened by rising sea levels, and the reaction of the Khembalis is compared to that of the Washingtonians.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Lynn Pritchard [Frontispiece] (illustrator). 1st Edition. A beautiful Green leatherbound edition from the Easton Press. Binding remains tight, text and illustrations clean and clear throughout; apart from the author's signature (Kim Stanley Robinson), the notation noting it's number, and a used bookplate with a previous owners name on it, there are no marks within; full leather over moire endpapers, all edges gilt with a ribbon bound in. Three raised bands on the spine, with gilt detailing and titles on spine. 'By the time Phil Chase is elected president, the world's climate is far on its way to irreversible change. Food scarcity, housing shortages, diminishing medical care, and vanishing species are just some of the consequences. The erratic winter the Washington, D.C., area is experiencing is another grim reminder of a global weather pattern gone haywire: bone-chilling cold one day, balmy weather the next. But the president-elect remains optimistic and doesn't intend to give up without a fight. A maverick in every sense of the word, Chase starts organizing the most ambitious plan to save the world from disaster since FDR-and assembling a team of top scientists and advisers to implement it. For Charlie Quibler, this means reentering the political fray full-time and giving up full-time care of his young son, Joe. For Frank Vanderwal, hampered by a brain injury, it means trying to protect the woman he loves from a vengeful ex and a rogue "black ops" agency not even the president can control-a task for which neither Frank's work at the National Science Foundation nor his study of Tibetan Buddhism can prepare him. In a world where time is running out as quickly as its natural resources, where surveillance is almost total and freedom nearly nonexistent, the forecast for the Chase administration looks darker each passing day. For as the last-and most terrible-of natural disasters looms on the horizon, it will take a miracle to stop the clock . . . the kind of miracle that only dedicated men and women can bring about.' 388 pages. 6.25 x 9.5 inches.
