About this title: Fifty years after India's independence, modern and urban values are eroding the subcontinent's ecosystems. In a companion volume to an upcoming PBS fall 1998 series, lifelong tiger devotee and environmentalist Valmik Thapar gives a brilliant argument for more vigilant nature conservation on the Indian subcontinent. Thapar's careful natural history is enriched also by personal anecdotes and musings on spirituality and culture. 167 stunning color photos.
