The images depict a Technicolor sunset over melting Arctic icebergs; endangered coral reefs and the marine life that depend on them; and animal parents caring for their young (images that can "crack the hardest hearts wide, and make people care," says photographer Suzi Eszterhas). Elsewhere, contributors document the abuses inflicted upon animals for profit, including animal trafficking in Africa, and the legal but cruel practices of industrial farming--pigs holed up in cramped living spaces; genetically modified chickens physically unable to stand. While unrelenting in its focus on humanitys "crimes against nature," the collection also spotlights the inspiring work of conservationists, as in Jen Guytons photos of pangolin rescue teams in Mozambique. Full of showstopping, full-color photos, this compendium gives due to trailblazing photographers whove made their mark in a field historically dominated by men, and who often take great risks to document environmental injustice. Urgent and visually arresting, this is hard to look away from." --Publishers Weekly Starred Review Details ISBN1957183306 Language English Year 2023 ISBN-10 1957183306 ISBN-13 9781957183305 Author Rhonda Rubinstein Format Paperback Subtitle Women Photographers Expose our Planet Country of Publication United States Imprint Oro Editions Place of Publication San Rafael Illustrations 100 Illustrations, color NZ Release Date 2023-11-13 UK Release Date 2023-11-13 Publisher Oro Editions Audience General DEWEY 779.30922 AU Release Date 2024-01-07 Publication Date 2023-09-01 US Release Date 2023-09-01 Pages 160 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
