Codex Orféo

Michael Charles Tobias, Ph.D., is an internationally renowned ecologist, philosopher, anthropologist, author of fiction and non-fiction; an explorer, filmmaker, educator and head of a major international ecological NGO. Tobias has written more than 200 books, films, plays and librettos, as well as more than 1,000 published articles/essays, including more than 80essays published in Forbes in the last few years.

“This is a thriller about geo-terrorism, anti-Semitism, the Holocaust as it reverberates decades later, and grasping global pharmaceutical syndicates. … In his novel Tobias connects the Holocaust, the Anthropocene, and the Sixth Extinction Spasm. … This is a crackerjack of a read. You will learn a lot about zoology, population extinction, Belarus, wilderness survival, and the love of family.” (Bob Sanchez, The Internet Review of Books, Internetreviewofbooks.blogspot.de, November, 2016)“I highly recommend Codex Orféo. But be prepared! What awaits the reader is a riveting literary expedition. Solid science, animal behavior, conservation biology, and human psychology all within a fictional odyssey by a very wise scientist. It’s an unrelenting and powerful drama, the result of which we can all hope will be a true renaissance of virtue.” (Marc Bekoff, MAHB Millennium Alliance for Humanity and Biosphere, mahb.stanford.edu, July, 2016)
