Life on Earth

Excellently written.

Gorgeous pictures, will keep kids occupied, adults can appreciate it too.

I have been a observer and enthusiast of Nature through 80 yeast of my life, and have passionetely collected a library of great books,But David Attenborrough's book eclipses them all. His language is engaging, his knowledge is profound.But most of all he has a manner of emphazising the things, processes and driving forces that resulted in surrounding us with the spectacular evidence of life that we are able to enjoy - as long as we don't continue to trash it!I love it as a book, but I have particularly great fun reading it by my computer, were I can, whenever he mentions a species or a process that I am not familiar with, I can find it in Google, Google Images, on Youtube or Google Earth. This slows down the reading speed, but improves the insights and understanding tremendously!And, I must say, there is a rare book, where I do feel that I learn 2 or 3 things, which I consider important on every and absolutely every page!I cannot recommend this book highly enough to any nature enthusiast, and especially to all who would like to become one!

La verdad es que lo compré para un regalo, así que no lo he leído. Creo que merece la pena leer a este hombre, toda una institución.

I can't add anything new to the glowing tributes given to this book. It's a classic even 40 years later.Let me give you a suggestion on the edition. Go for the hardcover and avoid the puny paperback which is pathetic.So do yourself a favour and pick up this 40th anniversary Hardcover edition. It's huge and heavy with glossy paper which makes the photographs really stand out.Just wonderful to hold and read. Amazing. Absolutely perfect.
