Namibia is an extensive and largely desolate country that stretches along the west coast of southern Africa. While the Tropic of Capricorn cuts through the land, it is bordered to the west by the icy Atlantic Ocean and to the east by the Kalahari. The eastern boundaries are defined by the Kunene River in the north, the Okavango in the northeast, and the Orange River in the dry south. Amidst these borders lies a land of incredible beauty with massive dunes, rugged mountains, geological rarities, and botanical wonders. For the wildlife that thrives here and the people who call it home, Namibia is a paradise on earth. This book brings to life the history, natural beauty, and cultural diversity of this beautiful and mysterious land. Impressive photography and an informative text guide the reader on an incredible journey through one of the last true wildernesses of our world.

INTRODUCTION FOR THE NATURAL HISTORY OF INDIA

Kenya ( /ˈkɛnjə/ or /ˈkiːnjə/), officially the Republic of Kenya, is a country in East Africa that lies on the equator. With the Indian Ocean to its south-east, it is bordered by Tanzania to the south, Uganda to the west, South Sudan to the north-west, Ethiopia to the north and Somalia to the north-east. Kenya has a land area of 580,000 km2 and a population of a little over 43 million residents.[2] The country is named after Mount Kenya, a significant landmark and second among Africa's highest mountain peaks. Its capital and largest city is Nairobi. Modern day Mt. Kenya was originally referred to as "Mt. Kirinyaga" by the indigenous people. "Kirinyaga or Kerenyaga, meaning ‘mountain of whiteness’ because of its snow capped peak"; The name was subsequently changed to Mt.Kenya due to the inability of the British to pronounce "Kirinyaga" correctly.
