Across the Tibetan Plateau - Robert L. Fleming
Ecosystems, Wildlife and Conservation.
Titel: Across the Tibetan Plateau / Auteur: Robert L. Fleming / Bindwijze: Hardcover met Stofomslag / Taal: Engels-Talig / Inhoud: 120 Bladzijdes / Uitgever: Ww Norton &Amp; Co / ISBN10: 0393061175 / ISBN13: 9780393061178 / Categorieën: School en studie / Exacte Wetenschappen / Natuur / Ecologie / Reizen en Talen / Koffieboek.
Here is the most comprehensive photography to date of a little-known and seldom-visited land whose area equals western Europe. The beauty and diversity of Tibet is staggering: from Mount Everest to the world's deepest gorge, from tropical jungles to arctic-like tundra, from trees twenty feet in diameter to vast herds and solitary specimens of some of the least-known animals on the planet. Certain photographs, such as those of a newborn Tibetan antelope or the elusive red ghoral, are among the first ever taken of these subjects. The book brings American, Tibetan, and Chinese scholarship to bear on the natural history of Tibet, and it also describes an extraordinary conservation accomplishment that has gone virtually unnoticed by the outside world. Where else has 40 percent of the land been set aside in nature preserves in twenty years? As a result of this effort, the animals and landscapes shown here will be saved for future generations.
