Jane Goodall is regarded as the world’s leading expert on chimpanzees. Her discoveries revolutionized our understanding of these remarkable animals. Yet she achieved this without any formal training. What she did have was a passion for animals and the patience to study them over long periods in their natural habitat. She also had the determination to overcome the skepticism of a scientific community that did not always approve of her methods. This book tells Jane’s story: her childhood in England, her groundbreaking work in Africa, and her role as a globetrotting ambassador of the conservation movement.
