The Diversity of Life by Edward O. Wilson

4.0

"Humanity coevolved with the rest of life on this particular planet; other worlds are not in our genes. Because scientists have yet to put names on most kinds of organisms, and because they entertain only a vague idea of how ecosystems work, it is reckless to suppose that biodiversity can be diminished indefinitely without threatening humanity itself"

Kind of textbook-ish at times. Still very compelling though
