Human: A Portrait of Our World

by Yann Arthus-Bertrand, with text by Ron Suskind - £19.95  Thames & Hudson Ltd (2015)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780500292143 | ISBN 10: 0500292140

Yann Arthus-Bertrand set out to have a conversation with the world
 
Together with the GoodPlanet Foundation, he conducted more than 2,000 interviews in seventy countries with people of every stripe, and took hundreds of portraits and aerial photographs. This book brings together the fruits of this unprecedented endeavour.
 
With its collection of inspiring, spectacular images, allied to the unforgettable testimonies, Human is a landmark achievement and a compelling portrait of humanity at the beginning of the twenty-first century.
 
From the Brazilian fisherman to the Chinese shopkeeper, from the German artist to the Afghan farmer, the interviewees answer questions about their fears, their dreams, their hardships and their hopes: What did you learn from your parents? What would you like to pass on to your children? What challenges have you had to face? What does love mean to you? Human includes excerpts from these interviews, alongside essays by eminent journalists and human rights activists, including Desmond Tutu, Malala Yousafzai and Ron Suskind.
