An updated, photo-filled account of a half century working with
chimpanzees in East Africa by the renowned primatologist. In honor of
the field site’s fiftieth anniversary, Jane Goodall: 50 Years at
Gombe is a compelling pictorial tribute to Dr. Goodall’s life, her
studies of chimpanzee behavior, and her unflagging efforts to motivate
people to make this world a better place. With new photographs and
updated text throughout, this revised edition retraces five decades of
compassion and discovery. Though the book covers a half century, the
accomplishments of the past ten years alone have given the Jane
Goodall Institute a great deal to celebrate. Recounted are endeavors
at the Gombe field site including landmark research related to AIDS
progression; establishing programs to improve sanitation, health care,
and education in neighboring Tanzanian communities; and partnering
with local people to pursue reforestation initiatives.
