  • From the author:
    • I am 93. I've had an extraordinary life. It's only now that I appreciate how extraordinary.
    • As a young man, I felt I was out there in the wild, experiencing the untouched natural world - but it was an illusion. The tragedy of our time has been happening all around us, barely noticeable from day to day -- the loss of our planet's wild places, its biodiversity.
    • I have been witness to this decline. A Life on Our Planet is my witness statement, and my vision for the future. It is the story of how we came to make this, our greatest mistake -- and how, if we act now, we can yet put it right.

Serious question: I have a 2012 Kindle Paperwhite, would I even be able to buy this and read it on that?

I already have a copy, but I'll buy a couple as gifts because Sir David is such a gem.

How do $2 e-books ever make the home page? Nobody who uses slickdeals and reads ebooks should ever pay more than $0 for them.

As soon as I saw a book from Attenborough I knew it would be 10% about nature and 90% chastising me for being a human and existing in modern society.

It's safe to add "how Man ruined.." prefix to any of his books or shows now.

For some people, supporting a product monetarily is worth it. I'd rather support something by contributing to it's value to a publisher which support production of more similar items in the future. $2 is low enough to make the one-click a no-brainer.

As soon as I saw it was an Attenborough book, I knew there would be whiners complaining for no good reason in the comments
