In The Earth as a Distant Planet, the authors become external observers of our solar system from a distance and try to determine how one can understand how Earth, the third in distance to the central star, is essentially unique and capable of sustaining life.

From the reviews:“This very up-to-date book stresses the importance that future studies of the Earth will bring to our quest to discover life around extrasolar planets. … The book is also an excellent reference source for researchers interested in detailed summary descriptions of the Earth and its role in the search for extraterrestrial life and other planets. Includes striking color pictures, graphs, and figures; extensive end-of-chapter references; a list of acronyms and units; and a four-page index. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals; general audiences.” (W. E. Howard III, Choice, Vol. 48 (3), November, 2010)
