Since its original publication in 1999, Yann Arthus-Bertrand's The Earth from the Air has been a touchstone for the environmental movement throughout the world. The subject of Arthus-Bertrand's work is our planet and its inhabitants, captured to serve as a record of our home for present and future generations. His photographs challenge and instruct, and resonate deeply with audiences everywhere. In this new edition, Arthus-Bertrand and a dozen experts on current environmental issues evaluate recent developments. With nearly 100 striking new images and seven new essays by such renowned authors as Jane Goodall, Matthieu Ricard and Olivier Blond, Arthus-Bertrand juxtaposes the Earth's raw beauty with the evidence of humanity's negative impact upon our home. This spectacular portrait of our planet, produced with the sponsorship of UNESCO, is an iconic reminder of its fragility.
