About this product

Product Information

After his Ph.D. in Agro-Forestry in England, Dr. Charles Ladim returns home to his village, Azor, where there is little respect for the environment. Not even professionals and the educated care. He starts a campaign which brings him into conflict with the traditional setup of his people and has to face even his best friend who is won over the hard way while light-heartedly abusing a stream. The latter becomes like Saul in the Bible, turning right round to become the protector of the very thing he had hitherto been persecuting. The play ends with Dr. Charles Ladim winning over the most violent of his antagonists with more than just words. His mission, however, is on its way to success as the most hidebound begin to understand what he is talking about. There is hope for the future. A few changes have been made in the prize-winning text for correctness and clarity and the last section has been brought in but, all along, the main idea of raising awareness of our duty to the environment so as to live a better life and leave a healthy country for our children stays central.

    Received the book in good condition. However it was sent in a freezer bag and a paper envelope. The envelope and bag were both torn and somehow the book was not damaged. Contacted the seller about the packaging and suggested maybe a padded envelope or a couple of pieces of stiff cardboard may offer better protection. Seller said they would pass information on to relevant staff. I doubt I will purchase from this seller again.

    Although my book never arrived (lost by Australia Post I’d imagine), I truly could not be more impressed with the service of this seller. I’d waited over three weeks before contacting them to advise them of the non-arrival to allow for ample postage time, and virtually immediately they issued a refund without my even having to ask. Five stars is definitely warranted. I would not hesitate to shop here again! Thank you so much for your promptness in reply and addressing the issue so superbly.

    The seller sent the order, though sadly, it never was delivered. This of course is a problem that occurs far too often in the transportation system. Messaging the seller and working out a result that was positive for us, was a stress free process. We want to highly recommend this seller as they are genuinely interested in the buyer’s best interests. They were quick to respond to our query. Ultimately, a refund was issued. Thank you again.
