An acknowledgement is customarily situated towards the front of a book, before the main text. In this case, and for the only time that I can remember, it is situated at the back of the book, just before the index. There is a "good" reason for this: the book is a straight, unrevised reprint of the original text, but with new photographs and printed on cheap(er) paper.
From the acknowledgement on p.293: "A great deal has happened to our planet since this book was written. Some of the warnings given in the first edition have proved to be only too accurate. Other newer dangers have also appeared. Professor Matthew Cobb of Liverpool University has therefore read the entire text to ensure that it is still accurate."
A tawdry, money-grabbing scam.
