Jane Goodall

Jane Goodall is a British primatologist, anthropologist, and environmental activist who is one of the world's most celebrated scientists. Born in London in 1934, she is best known for her sixty-year study of chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park, Tanzania, which revolutionised our understanding of primates. She is a UN Messenger of Peace. The Book of Hope: A Survival Guide for Trying Times, co-written with Douglas Abrams, shares Goodall's reasons for hope despite the environmental crises facing the planet. Drawing on her decades of scientific work and activism, she argues for the resilience of the natural world and the capacity of human beings to make a difference. Her audiobooks and books offer listeners and readers inspiring wisdom from one of the world's greatest scientists — a message of hope grounded in a lifetime of studying the natural world.
