Description

As a young woman, Jane Goodall was best known for her groundbreaking fieldwork with the
chimpanzees of Gombe, Africa. Goodall's work has always been controversial, mostly
because she broke the mold of research scientist by developing meaningful relationships
with her "specimens" and honoring their lives as she would other humans. Now at the age
of 60, she continues to break the mold of scientist by revealing how her research and
worldwide conservation institutes spring from her childhood callings and adult spiritual
convictions.

Reason for Hope is a smoothly written memoir that does not shy away from
facing the realities of environmental destruction, animal abuse, and genocide.
But Goodall shares her antidote to the poison of despair with specific examples of why
she has not lost faith. For instance, she shares her spiritual epiphany during a visit
to Auschwitz; her bravery in the face of chimpanzee imprisonment in medical
laboratories; and devotes a whole chapter to individuals, corporations, and countries
that are doing the right thing. But most of all Goodall provides a beautifully written
plea for why everyone can and must find a reason for hope. --Gail Hudson
