Photographer Mattias Klum takes us into the soul of the Borneo rainforest. Patiently waiting behind blinds, shooting from platforms high in the trees, or skimming above the forest canopy in a hot air balloon, Klum has captured the mystery, beauty, and complexity of Borneo's renowned but virtually impassable Danum Valley. He mounted the Borneo expedition to photograph the rainforest as it really is: filled with darkness and shadows shot through with streaks of light. Teeming with life, the rainforest promises unexpected encounters with creatures large and small, as its jungle of trees and undergrowth reach for the sky in infinite shades of green. Klum's keen lens captures it all. From a bizarre bearded pig to the increasingly rare Low's pitcher plant, from the king cobra to the delicate damselfly, Borneo Rainforest shows us an ancient, complex, irreplaceable ecosystem. Passionate descriptions and a journal of the expedition's events round out this homage to an extraordinary place.

In the mid-1930s Tom Harrison, under the auspices of the Oxford Exploration Club, organized an expedition into the jungles of Borneo. The young men who went with him included Edward Shackleton, son of the famous explorer Ernest Shackleton, and Patrick M. Synge, cousin of the Irish playwright. Together they spent six months among the Kayans, Kenyahs and the nomadic Punans, drank their rice spirit to the accompaniment of haunting chants, danced and sang, blew poisoned darts from the blow-pipe, were tattoed, and dwelt in longhouses whose features included chandeliers of human heads.

Simon is flying to the island of Borneo in the South China Sea. He plans to travel by boat and plane, and trek through one of the world's oldest rainforests to find orangutans in their natural equitorial habitat. He'll be sketching some of the island's 1,000s of species of tree, mammal and bird along the way. Simon Chapman, winner of the Blue Peter Book Award, brings geography to life, and his Expedition Diaries are a great way to introduce the world's biomes and habitats to children, direct from someone who's actually been in them - sometimes up to his neck! These books are perfect for sparking interest in this key school topic.

Over the years, Swiss photographer Tomas Wüthrich has visited Borneo many times to document the daily life of the Penan, a partially nomadic indigenous people living in the rainforests of Borneo. Their hunter-gatherer way of life in the Malaysian state of Sarawak is critically threatened by illegal logging and oil palm plantations, a fact that came to the world's attention when Swiss environmental activist Bruno Manser disappeared in the jungle without a trace in the year 2000 while campaigning for the Penan cause. In Doomed Paradise, Wüthrich paints a nuanced portrait of this unique culture through his stunning and sensitive photographs. Alongside the photographs are a selection of Penan myths, published here for the first time and collected by Canadian ethnographer, linguist, and filmmaker Ian B. G. Mackenzie, who has been researching the language and culture of the Penan since 2001. Also included is an essay by Lukas Straumann on Bruno Manser's legacy of activism on behalf of the Penan and its continued influence.
