The Kampankis Mountains are a knife-thin ridge in northern Peru that rises 1,435 meters above the surrounding Amazon lowlands. For three weeks, a group of researchers explored both the biological diversity and cultural values of the Cerros de Kampankis landscape, with the aim of promoting the long-term conservation of the area by the local Awajun and Wampis indigenous peoples. Field Museum and Peruvian scientists recorded over 1,700 species of plants, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, including twenty-five species that appear to be new to science. The report is presented in Spanish and English, and includes conservation recommendations, a technical report on the biological and social findings, appendices, and an executive summary in Wampis and Awajun.

In October 2012, an international and multidisciplinary team of experts conducted a rapid social and biological inventory of the Ere, Campuya, and Algodon watersheds of northern Amazonian Peru. Team members working on the social inventory studied the connections between local communities and their natural surroundings, while team members working on the biological inventory surveyed geology, plants, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals at three wilderness sites. Based on these studies, the team and its local partners drew up a detailed series of recommendations for sustaining healthy towns and forests in the area. This volume contains the team's full report and results in both Spanish and English, as well as overviews in Murui and Kichwa.

Nigel Botterill had a successful corporate career. Big six figure salary, bonuses, the works. Then, one day in November 2002, a meeting didn’t quite go to plan. He found himself out of a job and, on the way home to tell his wife the news, he took the decision to never be employed ever again. The Botty Rules is the story of what happened next. How, after several false-starts, Nigel has built a multi-million pound business empire from scratch, with five separate brands. This fascinating tale is a roller-coaster ride of what it takes to achieve real entrepreneurial success in 21st century Britain. The story is peppered with ‘Botty Rules’ -- the simple but powerful lessons that Nigel has learned along the way, sometimes painfully, but which collectively are a complete blueprint for success for any business owner or entrepreneur who is serious about making it big in the new economy. Straight-talking, disarmingly honest, and packed with practical tips and help for any business owner The Botty Rules is probably the most useful--and entertaining--business book of the year…
