By Henry Nicholls -. His writing is easy-going yet informative, and will be accessible to any reader with an interest in nature. - FINTAN ENRIGHT, IRISH EXAMINER. Guardian online review. It is one of the more startling revelations in Henry Nicholls's sprightly history that we still have no idea how many giant pandas there are currently living in the wild.

About this product

Product Information

In a most original book, science writer Henry Nicholls uses the rich and curious story of the panda from its 'discovery' 150 years ago in the highlands of China to its present international status as endearing icon of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF - fifty years old in 2011) and shy darling of the world's zoos to do several things - to chart the emergence of modern China onto the global stage; to examine our changing attitude to the natural world; and to offer a compelling history of the conservation movement.
