How do you make an object that changes the way people think about travel, a small metal box that inspires huge devotion in those who own it, a car that continues to make headlines fifty years after its launch? In May 1959, the first Mini was produced on an assembly line at Cowley, near Oxford. It would take a team of supremely talented designers, draftsmen, engineers and production-line workers to build a car that was unique in appearance and construction. They would clash frequently over an uncomfortable and unsafe prototype, and the public had to be convinced to buy a car that let in two inches of water when it rained. But somehow the Mini became an icon. Originally designed for austerity and efficiency, the car soon came to represent individuality and classlessness. Today, the car is still produced at Cowley - it is now owned by BMW and called the MINI. A great British manufacturing story, it is more popular throughout the world ... more

Author: Peter Pickford
Published by: Africa Geographic

An Africa safari is arguably one of the most alluring and universally understood dreams of contemporary time. Just the thought of an African safari is capable of evocations of adventure, a journey through nature's grandest spectacle, a glimpse of the earth before man. Peter & Beverly Pickford's "African Safari" is an exploration of all that the word 'safari' encompasses, from journeys on horseback and dugout canoes and the quiet drifting of a balloon, the tension of silent waiting on foot to the smell of dung, the soil and the rain. "African Safari" is an intimate odyssey through the great wilderness of Africa and an eye on its wild denizens, both human and animal, spiced with the echoes of a romantic history."African Safari" is structured into eight chapters: South Africa - Kruger & The Kgalagadi; Namibia - Etosha, Damaraland & Kaokoland; Botswana - Okavango, Chobe & Linyanti; Zimbabwe - Mana Pools & The Zambezi; Zambia - North & ... more

Humans and chimpanzees share 96 per cent of the same DNA, yet how do we view our closest biological relatives?
Our relationship with apes is recorded as far back as Aristotle, and various mentions appear in the Bible. Yet despite the publication of Darwin's theory of evolution in 1859, very little factual scientific information was known about chimpanzees until the early part of last century, when psychologists Wolfgang Khler and Robert Yerkes conducted a study focused specifically on the intellectual abilities of chimpanzees. Khler eventually concluded in Mentality of Apes, published in 1925, that: 'Chimpanzees manifest intelligent behaviour of the general kind familiar in human beings ... a type of behaviour which counts as specifically human.'

Close Friends and Relatives is a heart-warming and thought-provoking portrait of primates from multi-award-winning photographer Bob Elsdale.
