The Wisdom of David Attenborough

Book excerpt: Sir David Attenborough perhaps personifies the title of 'National Treasure' better than any other. Having been on our screens for more than sixty years, his groundbreaking documentaries have continually highlighted the true beauty of nature and taken us to alien worlds within our own planet. Attenborough is without doubt one of the most respected presenters of all time, his enthusiasm and gentle nature abundantly apparent in all of his works. This book brings together some of his most interesting and thought-provoking opinions on a variety of subjects.
