«In the Rainforest» is the popular science essay by Catherine Caufield, published by Pan Books in paperback (313 pages, in English).
After travelling through the jungles of Africa, Latin America and Southeast Asia, Caufield describes a lush and strange world: fish that live on fruit, spiders that hunt birds and violets the size of apple trees. She also analyses the crisis of tropical forests: destruction of ecosystems, economic interests, indigenous peoples and conservation.
Work published in 1986 in the Picador Books collection; its full original title is «In the Rainforest: Report from a Strange, Beautiful, Imperiled World».
For readers interested in popular science, biology and nature conservation.
