Noted scientist and conservationist Goodall provides listeners with stories about her life and her
experiences studying chimpanzees in Africa. She talks about her first exposure to animals at a farm
near her home and how the book Dr. Doolittle helped crystallize her desire. Later Goodall comments
on her first trip to the continent and how meeting Dr. Louis Leakey led to her life's work, living
among the animals, learning their behaviors, and bringing that information to the rest of the world.
Though this tape starts out as an autobiography, it focuses mostly on the work of the Goodall
Institute and "Roots and Shoots," organizations created to encourage the protection of animals and
their habitats.
