Gaia scientific theory latest news?

[David Dalton]

This already went to sci.geo.geology and other groups.

What is the latest on the scientific (as opposed to religious)
Gaia theory developed by James Lovelock and biologist Lynn Margulis
I think about 15 years ago?    Recent review or other paper
references and book and web page references would be
welcome.

Of course I may also do a web search, library catalogue
searches, and a Science Citation index search but it may
be helpful to get pointers from those of you at the leading
edge of the subject and/or who have already sifted through
some of the material available, so I am posting to these groups.

This is largely unrelated to my Ph.D. thesis though so I would
probably sift through the material at a rate of just a few hours a
week.

Followups set to sci.environment   .
