À propos de cet audio
David Attenborough reads his own bestselling memoir
David Attenborough is the acknowledged voice of nature, loved and revered worldwide for his groundbreaking wildlife documentaries. Over the course of his long BBC career, David has risen from trainee producer to award-winning film-maker, and in Life on Air, he tells the extraordinary stories of the people and animals he has met along the way.
We hear of his earliest days in television; his stint as Controller of BBC2, during which he introduced colour TV to Britain; and his encounters with luminaries such as Montgomery, Anthony Eden, Benjamin Britten and the Queen. Here, too, are tales of his travels to some of the most far-flung corners of the globe, including New Guinea, Borneo, Paraguay and the Australian outback, and the rare creatures he captures on film: from the exotic birds of paradise and the elusive Indri lemurs to the endangered Komodo dragon.
Featuring behind-the-scenes accounts of the making of his landmark natural history series, beginning with the pioneering Zoo Quest and concluding with Life in Cold Blood, this wonderful memoir - read by David Attenborough himself - recounts the highlights of a remarkable life in broadcasting.

Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities, adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary. In Living Planet, David Attenborough’s searching eye, unfailing curiosity and infectious enthusiasm explain and illuminate the intricate lives of the these colonies.

Histoire2 out of 5 stars 1
One of the nation's most popular presenters, Sir David examines 40 marvels of the natural world from his extraordinary and pioneering experiences. What was Sir David's first pet? Which animal would he most like to be? How did he track down a giant earthworm? Why does he respect rats? And what did he do when confronted by a 10-foot-long reptile? His enthusiasm is as infectious as ever and conveys a unique fascination on topics as diverse as the sloth, monstrous flowers, the platypus, dragons, the fire salamander, the coelacanth, the dodo, bird's-nest soup and the large blue butterfly.

He tells it like we are all close friends!!!
His narration of this book is beyond explanation!!!
He shares his excitement, his fears, his sorrow, all with such ease. Standing on a precipice, having a leaking scuba mask, freezing in the Antarctic, sweating in the jungles of Africa, all this is shared with such humility that we feel like we are with him in person!!!
I can't get enough of him!!!
This is my second book but I'm going to grab another one ASAP!!!

Great Listen by a Great Man
I thoroughly enjoyed this title. It was wonderful to listen to Sir David tell his story about how he got to be where he is, peppered with good humour. Even though this is a longer listen at nearly 20 hours, I was never bored. Highly recommended for anyone who is a fan of David Attenborough and his work.

Fascinating read on the life of an incredible man
Growing up and watching every special that David Attenborough has made, it was interesting to learn about his childhood, how he got into his line of work, and his ever-growing love and affection for our planet. Highly recommend for anyone, but also for those who think they are stuck in a job or in life. Attenborough is a great example of someone who lived his dream
