Written for the non-specialist and illustrated with colour photographs, this book takes a positive approach to rain-forest conservation in a style incorporating humour and anecdote. After a survey of the rain forests of the world, the author goes on to examine their animals and plants, the people who live in them, the threats to their survival, and the efforts that are being made to save them. John Nichol's other books include "The Animal Smugglers", "A Guide to Zoos and Specialist Collections" and "Bites and Stings".
