The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
Co-presented with ISLAND PRESS, TOWN HALL CENTER FOR CIVIC LIFE, and ISLANDWOOD. World-renowned scientist and freshwater expert Peter Gleick is the recipient of a MacArthur Foundation "genius" grant and is, according to the BBC, an environmental visionary. And he drinks water from the tap. Why don't the rest of us? His book, Bottled and Sold: The Story Behind Our Obsession with Bottled Water (Island Press), lays out how water went from being a free natural resource to one of the most successful commercial products of the last one hundred years—and why we are poorer for it. "With the gusto of a born raconteur and the passion of a believer, Gleick makes a sound case for improving the developing world's access to, and the developed world's attitude toward safe, piped drinking water purified by the natural hydrologic cycle." - Publishers Weekly. $5 tickets are available at the door starting at 6:30 p.m., or in advance via www.brownpapertickets.com (also 1-800-838-3006). Preferred seating for Town Hall members. Town Hall Seattle is at 1119 Eighth Avenue (at Seneca). For more information, please call Town Hall at (206) 652-4255, or see www.islandpress.com.
