Description

There are no places richer in diversity and host to such a quantity of different living things. With a visually stunning collection of photographs and an inspiring text by the bestselling author of The Life & Love of Trees, Rainforest opens our minds to the vital and beautiful role that rainforests play in managing the life of our world. Compelling imagery, accompanied by a rich and thoughtful text, provides a new appreciation for the world's rainforests and their verdant plant life, diverse animal species, heroic human explorations, and breakthrough discoveries. It is an epic journey across possibly the most important environments on Earth, providing valuable insight into how our planet works and what we must do to protect and develop these fragile ecosystems. This book will be created entirely from eco-friendly products: paper from fully certified renewable sources, vegetable inks that emit zero harmful compounds into the atmosphere at the time of their production, and linen binding made from 100% natural fibers that have not been bleached, dyed or coated.
