Descripción del artículo del vendedor

In "Tropic of Capricorn", Simon Reeve sets out on a global adventure through ten countries following the line of the Southern Tropic: Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Mozambique, Madagascar, Australia, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil. Travelling through breathtaking landscapes, home to an abundance of unique and spectacular flora and fauna, Simon witnesses some of the most striking natural wonders on Earth - from the shifting sands of the Namibian desert to the gigantic waterfalls of Iguzu in Brazil. But it is the people that inhabit these lands that intrigue him the most.Simon delves deep into cultures where often startling traditions are still practiced today, such as the use of gang rape as a punishment for breaking aboriginal law in Australia. He grapples with the turbulent histories that remain etched on the people and the places they inhabit, and with the wide-ranging tensions that shape the identity of these vastly disparate countries, all linked by an invisible line. From the impact of German colonialism in Namibia and diamond mining and civil war in Botswana, to Nazi war criminals in mysterious Paraguay and a controversial nuclear power station built on an earthquake fault line in Brazil, Simon writes about the important issues that are happening today and reveals parts of our world little understood or known about - until now. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Descripción de la tienda

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others.
