David Attenborough Life on Air
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 11.87 € (+2.70 €)Sir David Attenborough is Britain's best-known natural history film-maker. His career as a naturalist and broadcaster has spanned nearly six decades, and in this volume of memoirs Sir David tells stories of the people and animals he has met and the places he has visited. \n\nHis first job - after Cambridge University and two years in the Royal Navy - was at a London publishing house. Then in 1952 he joined the BBC as a trainee producer, and it was while working on the Zoo Quest series (1954-64) that he had his first opportunity to undertake expeditions to remote parts of the globe, to capture intimate footage of rare wildlife in its natural habitat. He was Controller of BBC2 (1965-68), during which time he introduced colour television to Britain, then Director of Programmes for the BBC (1969-1972). However, in 1973 he abandoned administration altogether to return to documentary-making and writing, and has established himself as the world's leading Natural History programme maker with several landmark BBC series, including Life on Earth (1979), The Living Planet (1984), The Trials of Life (1990), The Private Life of Plants (1995), Life of Birds (1998), The Blue Planet (2001), Life of Mammals (2002), Planet Earth (2006) and Life in Cold Blood (2008). \n\nSir David is an Honorary Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge, a Fellow of the Royal Society and was knighted in 1985. He is also Britain's most respected, trusted and lauded natural history broadcaster and writer, championing conservation and standing at the forefront of issues concerning the planet's declining species. A lot has changed since his first television documentary, and in this updated edition of Life on Air Sir David tells us of his experiences of filming in the 21st century.

David Attenborough Life on Air
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 29.69 €David Attenborough is one of the most influential and admired figures in English television. When 26, he applied for a job in the BBC – which then meant radio – and was promptly turned down. But someone saw his rejected application and asked, would he like to try television? He would, and sixty years later, he is still at it. Elegantly told, often very funny, here is his story.\n\nAt home there is his rise to controlling BBC2, introducing colour television to Britain, encounters with Montgomery, Anthony Eden, singers, athletes, explorers, the Queen, Benjamin Britten. Abroad there are people just as remarkable, journeys up tropical rivers, to the interior of New Guinea or the Australian outback, dragons, birds of paradise, flying snakes and walls of cockroaches.\n\nNow updated to cover his work since 2009, Life on Air is a remarkable account of David Attenborough’s passion for the natural world and his lifelong quest to understand it. .

David Attenborough Living Planet: The Web of Life on Earth
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 21.00 € (+2.70 €)The Sunday Times Bestseller\n \n A new, fully updated narrative edition of David Attenborough’s seminal biography of our world, The Living Planet.\n \n\n\n Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary: fish that walk or lay eggs on leaves in mid-air; snakes that fly; flightless birds that graze like deer; and bears that grow hair on the soles of their feet.\nIn The Living Planet, David Attenborough’s searching eye, unfailing curiosity and infectious enthusiasm explain and illuminate the intricate lives of the these colonies, from the lonely heights of the Himalayas to the wild creatures that have established themselves in the most recent of environments, the city. By the end of this book it is difficult to say which is the more astonishing – the ingenuity with which individual species contrive a living, or the complexity of their interdependence on each other and on the habitations provided by our planet.\nIn this new edition, the author, with the help of zoologist Matthew Cobb, has added all the most up-to-date discoveries of ecology and biology, as well as a full-colour 64-page photography section. He also addresses the urgent issues facing our living planet: climate change, pollution and mass extinction of species.

Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 17.96 € (+2.70 €)Un coraggioso testamento per le generazioni di oggi e quelle future e per tutti coloro che vogliono preservare la bellezza di questo mondo.«Sir David Attenborough consegna il proprio \"testamento spirituale\" a un incredibile saggio in cui è declinata la ricetta per salvare la Terra» - Enrico Franceschini, RobinsonÈ stato un pioniere del documentario naturalistico e uno dei massimi divulgatori scientifici a livello mondiale. Per più di 50 anni ha realizzato reportage di storia naturale trasmessi da numerose reti televisive. Anche Netflix celebrerà l'autore con un documentario sulla sua vita in uscita in autunno. David Attenborough è una star internazionale. Di quelle vere, che non fanno tanto parlare di sé ma che lasciano il segno quando aprono bocca. Il decano dei documentaristi, il più grande divulgatore di scienza e natura vivente, in questo splendido viaggio nel tempo e nei luoghi simbolo ci racconta la sua vita di avventuriero, le bellezze del nostro pianeta e le trasformazioni avvenute nell'ultimo secolo o ancora in atto, causate dall'azione dell'uomo. L'inesorabile declino della biodiversità è la vera tragedia del nostro tempo. Il mondo naturale sta scomparendo. Le prove sono intorno a noi. C'è il rischio che il nostro silenzio e la nostra incuria ci portino dritti alla distruzione. Ma c'è ancora tempo per agire. C'è un'alternativa migliore alla catastrofe e Attenborough sembra conoscerla molto bene, grazie alla sua invidiabile esperienza sul campo. I prossimi decenni saranno l'ultima opportunità per costruire una casa stabile per noi e ripristinare l'ambiente ricco, sano e meraviglioso che abbiamo ereditato dai nostri antenati. È in gioco il nostro futuro sul pianeta, l'unico, per quanto ne sappiamo, in cui sia possibile la vita. La vita sul nostro pianeta è un coraggioso testamento per le generazioni di oggi e quelle future e per tutti coloro che vogliono preservare la bellezza di questo mondo. Oggi, ancora più di ieri, dopo la pandemia di Covid-19.

David Attenborough Avventure di un giovane naturalista
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 18.05 € (+2.70 €)Da oltre sessant'anni David Attenborough racconta le meraviglie della natura sul piccolo schermo, è considerato il più celebre e autorevole divulgatore scientifico britannico e il suo nome, sempre in coppia con quello della BBC, è ormai diventato sinonimo di documentario.\r\nMa come è iniziata questa straordinaria carriera?\r\n\r\n«Un grande educatore e un grande naturalista». - Barack Obama\r\n\r\n«La sua scrittura è piacevole quanto i suoi programmi televisivi e non ci può essere complimento più bello» - Daily Express\r\n\r\n«Un libro meraviglioso, assolutamente coinvolgente» - Telegraph\r\n\r\nÈ il 1952, Attenborough ha ventisei anni ed è un produttore televisivo con poca esperienza, una laurea in zoologia del tutto inutilizzata e la smania di realizzare un suo programma sugli animali. I programmi dedicati agli animali si dividono allora tra quelli presentati da George Cansdale, direttore dello zoo di Londra che, ogni settimana, trasporta negli studi televisivi le creature più mansuete, le colloca sopra un tavolo e ne descrive l'anatomia e le caratteristiche, con la rischiosa incognita che durante la puntata gli animali evacuino sui suoi pantaloni, lo mordano e si diano alla fuga; oppure i documentari cinematografici dei coniugi Denis, cortometraggi di mezz'ora che mostrano, in maniera piuttosto monotona, gli animali nel loro ambiente. Attenborough sa di poter realizzare un programma che possieda i pregi di entrambi i format, senza però averne i difetti. Così, grazie al finanziamento della bbc e dello zoo di Londra, e con l'aiuto di Jack Lester, curatore del rettilario allo zoo, si imbarca in una serie di spedizioni che prevedono la cattura di specie rare nei più disparati luoghi del mondo: il picatarte collobianco in Sierra Leone, il formichiere gigante in Guyana, il drago di Komodo in Indonesia e gli armadilli in Paraguay. Sarà l'inizio di una grande avventura che lo porterà a percorrere chilometri e chilometri tra deserti, foreste e terreni insidiosi, per registrare l'incredibile bellezza e biodiversità di queste regioni. Se i metodi possono, oggi, essere considerati obsoleti, il fascino e il rispetto per la fauna selvatica, le persone e l'ambiente – e l'importanza di proteggere questi luoghi selvaggi – non lo sono affatto e fanno indubbiamente di quest'opera «un grande libro per chiunque desideri viaggiare per conto suo come un avventuriero vecchio stile» («The New York Times»).

Jean-Baptiste Gouyon BBC Wildlife Documentaries in the Age of Attenborough
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 29.68 €This book explores the history of wildlife television in post-war Britain. It revolves around the role of David Attenborough, whose career as a broadcaster and natural history filmmaker has shaped British wildlife television. The book discusses aspects of Attenborough’s professional biography and also explores elements of the institutional history of the BBC—from the early 1960s, when it was at its most powerful, to the 2000s, when its future is uncertain. It focuses primarily on the wildlife ‘making-of’ documentary genre, which is used to trace how television progressively became a participant in the production of knowledge about nature. With the inclusion of analysis of television programmes, first-hand accounts, BBC archival material and, most notably, interviews with David Attenborough, this volume follows the development of the professional culture of wildlife broadcasting as it has been portrayed in public. It will be of interest to wildlife television amateurs, historians of British television and students in science communication.
