Since the middle of the twentieth century the world has witnessed a succession of political and social disruptions. Globalisation, technological advancement, climate change, human migration, war and conflict - all have caused major worldwide upheavals. In this light, it's unsurprising that conservation of rare breed animals has been neglected. Yet the preservation of these genetic resources - this biological diversity - is an essential ingredient of sustainable life on Earth, and not something we can afford to lose. This book, straight from the 'horse's mouth' Lawrence Alderson CBE, challenges often repeated 'facts' about livestock farming and argues for a reasoned and evidence-based approach from political and public circles. Correcting misconceptions as he goes, he recounts the creation and development of the rare breed conservation movement, addresses extinctions and genetic safe-guarding measures, and considers where we go from here. Challenged as we are by climate change, sustainability and feeding the world, perhaps it is these endangered animals that hold the answer - perhaps with them, we can adapt to our changing environment and see a way forward to a more certain future.

Optimismus, der dem Pessimismus Schopenhauers radikal entgegengesetzt ist, der Wille zum Leben, der sich im Geschlecht ausdrückt, ist Freude, und in ihm müssen Denken und Handeln ihren Ausgangspunkt haben, wenn sie nicht leerer Begriff, unfruchtbarer Mechanismus bleiben sollen . . .« Mit diesem, wie Simone de Beauvoir sagt, »Willen zum Leben« hat D. H. Lawrence auch jene Liebeserzählungen geschrieben, die den Romanen, seinem Hauptwerk, vorangegangen sind.
Dreißig Jahre lebte Lawrence Durrell in der Provence, und die Provence ist auch das Thema seines letzten, kurz vor seinem Tod 1990 erschienenen Buches. Es ist eine Liebeserklärung an seine Wahlheimat, ein sehr persönliches, ungewöhnliches Buch, eine Mischung aus Reiseimpressionen, autobiographischen Texten und Geschichten. Plaudernd schreibt Durrell über die Geschichte und die Entwicklung der Provence, erläutert den kulturhistorischen Zusammenhalt zwischen Römern und Franzosen, erzählt vom Mythos, den dieser Landstrich für den Rest des Landes darstellt, beschreibt die Architektur des Südens, aber auch die Lebenslust, das Lebensgefühl der Provenzalen weiß er unvergleichlich zu schildern.
