"Ten years on from the first, groundbreaking Planet Earth, the
most incredible advances in technology and scientific discovery are used
to bring the most exciting and immersive picture of our world's
wildlife yet. With more than 250 breathtaking photographs and stills
from the BBC Natural History Unit's spectacular footage, this is an
extraordinary new look at the complex life of some of the most amazing
places on Planet Earth. Each chapter reveals an environment—some
never-before-seen, some astonishingly familiar—defined by a unique set
of rules required for survival. From the most desolate desert to the
depths of the jungle, from blistering heat and freezing cold to
perpetual darkness and deadly UV, discover how a whole host of creatures
have adapted to life in the most extreme conditions. And how they
compete with one another to become the largest, the fastest, the most
poisonous, or most devious—all in a bid to survive. Planet Earth II
includes the first in-depth look at the urban environment, and the
surprising range of behaviors occurring right under our noses, as well
as some previously untouched island worlds. Filmed with remarkable 5k
and infra-red technology, these are the challenges, the confrontations,
and the triumphs of some of the most extraordinary creatures in the
natural world, told from their perspective. This is our planet, as you
have never seen it before." (amazon.com)
