    Paperback. Condizione: Fine. 'Ultimately as inspiring and devastating as the Amazon itself' The Guardian'Bold, pacy, bursting with optimism and filled with vivid descriptions, this is the work of an indomitable soul' - Guy ShrubsoleA brilliantly colourful work of reportage . a haunting and truly important read' - The TelegraphRECIPIENT OF A WHITING FOUNDATION AWARDOn 5 June 2022, award-winning journalist Dom Phillips was working on this book, alongside the indigenous expert Bruno Pereira, when they were both shot. They are believed to have been assassinated by one of the criminal networks whose ecological exploitation they were working to expose.As the world becomes more aware of the significance of the Amazon, home to nearly 400 billion trees, working in this vast region has become ever more dangerous for activists and journalists. Fires, land grabs, and the invasion of reserves have all spiked over recent decades, pushing the world's biggest forest ever closer to a point of no return. The last few years have seen efforts to reduce deforestation, but the question remains; can we save this globally essential ecosystem before it is too late?A group of expert writers took up Phillips' partially completed manuscript, committed to his mission of uncovering the truth about deforestation and searching for solutions. Blending in-depth reporting and encounters with indigenous activists, ecologists, farmers, and political figures, How to Save The Amazon is a dazzling account of how we can fight ecological destruction and stand in solidarity with the Earth's environmental defenders.…

    Paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

    Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A book both brilliant and broken, [and] one that is ultimately as inspiring and devastating as the Amazon itself.The Guardian"The book nearly died with him in the Amazon. But the story endured. . . [Chapters are] rooted in conflict, but searching for solutions."The New York TimesJournalist Dom Phillips traveled deep into the Amazon rainforest searching for solutions to the problem of deforestation, a threat to the local ecosystem, native tribes, and the global climate. When he was murdered in the Javari Valley by a group of environmental criminals, a cohort of journalists and activists took up his work to finish his book and share his important message.During the dark days of the Bolsonaro administration, journalist Dom Phillips set out to accomplish an ambitious goal: through research, interviews, and site visits deep into the rainforest, he would emerge with a book answering the question, "How can we save the Amazon?" Dom's investigation led him through Amazonia, where the drug trade, ranching, fires, illegal fishing, and mining have degraded millions of acres of important forest ecosystems, creating dangerous conditions for the Indigenous communities who have called the Amazon home for thousands of years. Searching for strategies to protect both the land and the people who inhabit it, Dom connected with politicians, farmers, and Indigenous activists. But in June of 2022, while traveling by boat to the Javari Valley with Brazilian expert on Indigenous affairs Bruno Pereira, Dom and Bruno were brutally murdered. In the aftermath of this tragedy, a group of expert writers, journalists, activists, and colleagues took up Dom's partially completed manuscript in a mission to uncover the answers he sought. Blending in-depth reporting with a relentless pursuit of the truth, the resultHow to Save the Amazonis a dazzling account of how we can fight ecological destruction and stand in solidarity with the Earth's environmental defenders. A work of courage interrupted by tragedy. . . No book speaks more persuasively to the importance of the Amazon and the dangers that it faces.Elizabeth Kolbert, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth Extinction"We can't let life on this earth be snuffed out; this powerful book will help us rise to this challenge."Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

    Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A book both brilliant and broken, [and] one that is ultimately as inspiring and devastating as the Amazon itself.The Guardian"The book nearly died with him in the Amazon. But the story endured. . . [Chapters are] rooted in conflict, but searching for solutions."The New York Times2025 Foreword Reviews INDIES Award HONORABLE Mention for Political and Social SciencesJournalist Dom Phillips traveled deep into the Amazon rainforest searching for solutions to the problem of deforestation, a threat to the local ecosystem, native tribes, and the global climate. When he was murdered in the Javari Valley by a group of environmental criminals, a cohort of journalists and activists took up his work to finish his book and share his important message.During the dark days of the Bolsonaro administration, British journalist Dom Phillips set out to accomplish an ambitious goal: through research, interviews, and site visits deep in the rainforest, he would emerge with a book answering the questionhow can we save the Amazon? Traveling with his companion Indigenous expert Bruno Pereira, Doms adventure includes trekking through Amazonia to see where ranching, fires, illegal fishing, mining, the drug trade, and urbanization have deforested and degraded millions of acres of important forest, degraded ecosystems, and created dangerous conditions for the Indigenous tribes who have called the Amazon home for thousands of years.Jair Bolsonaro came into power on a platform of anti-environmental exploitation and deregulation. During his term, deforestation in the Amazon, the lungs of Planet Earth, increased exponentially as environmental criminals took advantage of lax rules, advantageous land use policy, and the difficulty of enforcing laws in a remote area of immense size. Lawlessness reigned and environmental activists found themselves in danger. With the intention of discovering strategies to protect both the land and the people who inhabit it, Dom connected with politicians, farmers, and Indigenous activists to study the benefits and pitfalls of solutions like agroforestry, tourism, and the bioeconomy. While traveling by boat in the Javari Valley, Dom and Bruno were brutally murdered. Unwilling to see her late husbands work be for naught, Doms widow, Ale, and his literary agent assembled a team of expert writers, journalists, and activists to complete his work, with each tackling one unfinished chapter and grappling with the challenge of interpreting his field notes and discovering his conclusions. How to Save the Amazon, therefore, is a book both by and about Dom Phillips, his quest for answers, and his search for hope.A work of courage interrupted by tragedy. . . No book speaks more persuasively to the importance of the Amazon and the dangers that it faces.Elizabeth Kolbert, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth Extinction"We can't let life on this earth be snuffed out; this powerful book will help us rise to this challenge."Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
