World-renowned behavioral scientists Jane Goodall and Marc Bekoff have set forth ten trusts that we must honor as custodians of the planet. They argue passionately and persuasively that if we put these trusts to work in our lives, the earth and all its inhabitants will be able to live together harmoniously. The Ten Trusts expands the concept of our obligation to live in close relationship with animals -- for, of course, we humans are part of the animal kingdom -- challenging us to respect the interconnection between all living beings as we learn to care about and appreciate all species. The world is changing. We are gradually becoming more aware of the damage we are inflicting on the natural world. At this critical moment for the earth, Goodall and Bekoff share their hope and vision of a world where human cruelty and hatred are transformed into compassion and love for all living beings. They dream of a day when scientists and non-scientists can work together to transform the earth into a place where human beings live in peace and harmony with animals and the natural world. Simple yet profound, The Ten Trusts will not only change your perspective regarding how we live on this planet, it will establish your responsibilities as a steward of the natural world and show you how to live with respect for all life.
Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, is a pioneering primatologist and anthropologist known for her ground-breaking work on chimpanzee behavior in the wild. Gaining global recognition through her detailed observations of chimpanzee social and family interactions, Goodall's books such as In the Shadow of Man and The Chimpanzees of Gombe: Patterns of Behavior have become seminal texts in primatology. Her research shifted the understanding of animal behavior and emphasized the need for conservation, marking her as a profound influence in the scientific community and beyond.
Born on April 3, 1934, in London, England, Jane Goodall ventured to Gombe Stream National Park, Tanzania in 1960 without formal scientific training but armed with an unyielding curiosity about animals, at the urging of paleontologist Louis Leakey. Beyond her scientific pursuits, Goodall emphasizes environmental advocacy, founding the Jane Goodall Institute in 1977 and initiating the Roots & Shoots program in 1991, aimed at inspiring young people to take action for sustainable development. Her personal life, marked by her passion for observing animals and connecting human responsibility to conservation, continues to influence her ongoing work and public engagements.
