Overview
Now in paperback-the ten things we must do to ensure a safe and peaceful world, from legendary environmentalist Jane Goodall and brilliant animal behaviorist, Marc Bekoff. Combining her life's work living among the chimpanzees with her spiritual perspective on the relationship between humans and animals, legendary behavioral scientist Jane Goodall sets forth ten trusts that we as humans have as custodians of the planet: 1. Respect all life 2. Live as part of the Animal Kingdom 3. Educate our children to respect animals 4. Treat animals as you would like to be treated 5. Be a steward 6. Value the sounds of nature and help preserve them 7. Do not harm life in order to learn about it 8. Have the courage of your convictions 9. Act knowing that your actions make a difference 10. Act knowing that you are not alone. Filled with inspirational stories, The Ten Trusts provides lessons Jane Goodall has learned from a lifetime of experience, with the warmth and emotion her readers have come to expect from her. Marc Bekoff, cofounder of the Roots and Shoots program with Jane, also contributes his profound insights and research, which Jane has come to rely on. Together, they share their hope and vision for humanity and all the earth's creatures, distilled into ten eloquent spiritual lessons. Within these ten trusts, Goodall reveals how we can gain true enlightenment by living in harmony with the animal kingdom and honoring the interconnection between all species.
Jane Goodall
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.
