Living Planet: The Web of Life on Earth, by David Attenborough (Harper Collins)

As world tour guides go, Sir David Attenborough is pretty unsurpassable. You voted this updated edition of his biography of Earth, The Living Planet, your travel book of 2022. The book illustrates the incredible life force of our planet — and the threats it now faces, from climate change to mass extinction. As Attenborough sounds an urgent call for action, this book is a powerful reminder of all there is to lose by not heeding it.
