Rainforest

Dispatches from Earth's Most Vital Frontlines

New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Drawing on decades of campaigning and first-hand experiences, this illustrated book explains the importance of rainforests and how their decline must be managed in the face of the demands of a growing population and the drive for economic development. Spanning the Americas, Africa and Asia, it examines threats including logging and cattle-ranching and uses scientific evidence and local knowledge to set out the measures needed to save what remains of these vital ecosystems.
