It all points to the importance of using our creativity, our clever brains, and understanding and comprehension, to create a more sustainable and ethical world in which everyone can make a decent living while existing in harmony with nature.
Jane Goodall wrote those words in the closing address of her Book of Hope. The first edition came out during the pandemic, but it still echoes today.
The Book of Hope: A Survival Guide for an Endangered Planet, is the special Viking hardcover edition by Penguin Random House UK, of 249 pages. I ordered it directcly from The Guardian for a gift, but it is difficult to find now. Some POD with this cover are possible on the big ZON, but I do encourage you to buy from the publisher.
Where to find this book: The Book of Hope: A Survival Guide for an Endangered Planet.
The Celadon edition is available here, along with other formats, with another cover. Celadon is a division of division of Macmillan Publishers, and was the first publisher. The paperback edition (below) had another cover mentioning Gail Hudson, a long-time friend of Jane. The ebook is available on Kobo.
This 272 pages paperback is a compact edition by Penguin (Global Icons Series, 1) from 2022. Go to the publisher page first, Penguin Random House UK, if you want this very inexpensive edition. I always encourage the publishing houses small or big, before the platforms. However, I don’t know why they changed the subtitle to “A Survival Guide for Trying Times“.
As for my own wishes, who are neither horses or spaceships, it is to put as much goodness in every action as you can. Good intentions are nice, but actions are what we see and hear.
May your thoughts and actions sustain hope in the new year!
