A favourite returns to print, completely updated and revised to coincide with Gombe's 50th-anniverary celebrations.
A great deal has happened since the publication of Jane Goodall: 40 Years at Gombe in 1999. Most recently, endeavors at the Gombe field site have included landmark research related to AIDS progression; establishing programs to improve sanitation, health care, and education in neighboring Tanzanian communities; and partnering with local people to pursue reforestation initiatives. The accomplishments of the past 10 years alone have given the Jane Goodall Institute a great deal to celebrate. In honor of the field site’s 50th anniversary, STC is proud to release Jane Goodall: 50 Years at Gombe, a compelling pictorial tribute to Dr. Goodall’s life, her studies of chimpanzee behavior, and her unflagging efforts to motivate people to make this world a better place. With a new format, a modern design, more than a dozen new photographs, and updated text throughout, this revised edition retraces five decades of compassion and discovery.

Dr. Jane Goodall is one of the world's most recognized scientists, the recipient of numerous awards, the subject of many documentary films, and a bestselling author. She first arrived in Gombe in 1960 with a single mission: to gain insight on human behavior through studying the region's chimpanzees. In 1977 the Jane Goodall Institute was founded to provide ongoing support for field research and conservation. Now, at age 75, Dr. Goodall spends more than 300 days of the year traveling the world, spreading her message, and fundraising for her causes.
