The Los Angeles Times said, “Jane Goodall is the Einstein of behavioral sciences.” And the Boston Globe said, “Being with Jane Goodall is like a walk with Ghandi.”
From legendary environmentalist Jane Goodall and brilliant animal behaviorist, Marc Bekoff, The Ten Trusts tells us what we must do to ensure a safe and peaceful world. Jane shares, "One of our main goals in writing this book is to show that we humans are part of the wonderful animal kingdom and part of nature, not separate from them."
Combining Jane's life's work living among the chimpanzees with her spiritual perspective on the relationship between humans and animals, Goodall and Bekhoff expand on their ten trusts:
- Respect all life and live as part of the Animal Kingdom.
- Educate our children to respect animals and treat animals as you would like to be treated.
- Be a steward and value the sounds of nature and help preserve them.
- Do not harm life in order to learn about it and have the courage of your convictions.
- Act knowing that your actions make a difference and remember that you are not alone.
Filled with inspirational stories, The Ten Trusts provides lessons Jane has learned from a lifetime of experience, with the warmth and emotion her readers have come to expect from her. Marc Bekoff, cofounder of the Roots and Shoots program with Jane, also contributes his profound insights and research. Together, they share their hope and vision for humanity and all the earth's creatures, distilled into ten eloquent spiritual lessons. Within these ten trusts, Goodall reveals how we can gain true enlightenment by living in harmony with the animal kingdom and honoring the interconnection between all species.
