A professional biologist with wide experience of working both in
the UK and overseas, Rory Putman takes us with him on working trips
to Iceland, East Africa, Nigeria and Indonesia, introducing us to
the countries and their people, their natural history, and
explaining some of the wildlife issues which have prompted himself
and his colleagues to travel there in the first place. The stories
cover episodes from more than four decades of working as a jobbing
biologist overseas. The understanding required to solve problems
and seek solutions to particular issues related to management and
conservation of wildlife means that in some way the observer
becomes much more intimately engaged, and perhaps gains a different
perspective of the country and its culture than might be apparent
to a more casual 'outside' onlooker. To some extent, that deeper
involvement enables Rory Putman to give the reader more of an
inside view and introduction to the countries and their wildlife
from a wholly personal perspective. Like many other enthusiastic
naturalists, the author enjoyed experiencing new habitats and
seeing wonderful and exotic species on his travels and this
engaging book will carry the reader along on the journey.
