From the Amazon rainforest to the polluted coastal cities, local Peruvian communities are finding ways to protect and improve their environment. Yet despite these positive changes, many Peruvians continue to live in poverty, without adequate housing, education or health care. Meet the people of Peru and learn about the diversity of their lives, from a mining engineer in Cachimayo to a shaman in Huasao. This book includes maps and graphic panels showing statistics and fact boxes about size, flag, population, religion, currency and language.
