In 1986, 20-year-old Christopher Knight left his home in Massachusetts, drove to Maine, and disappeared into the woods. He would not speak to another human being until three decades later when he was arrested for stealing food. Christopher survived by his wits and courage, developing ingenious ways to store food and water in order to avoid freezing to death in his tent during the harsh Maine winters. He broke into nearby cottages for food, clothes, reading material and other provisions, taking only what he needed. In the process, he unwittingly terrified a community.

In the 1920s, the Russian geochemist Vladimir Vernadsky proposed that human thought was becoming a planetary force—a new sphere overlaying the biosphere, made not of rocks or oceans or life but of mind. He called it the noosphere. A hundred years later, no one is quite sure whether he was right. This book tells the strange career of that idea. It begins with a man at a microscope in St. Petersburg and ends somewhere in the silent cosmos, asking the question Vernadsky raised and never answered: is reason a planetary force, a cosmic attractor, an evolutionary fluke—or all three at once?
