In his new book, "Environment," author and renowned scientist Rolf Halden explores our essential interconnectedness with our surroundings. In observations both personal and scientific, Halden reflects on how our daily lifestyle decisions are impacting the places we occupy, our health and humanity’s prospect of survival. 

Halden, a senior sustainability scientist, directs the Center for Environmental Health Engineering in Arizona State University's Biodesign Institute and is a professor in the School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment, Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering.
