Hendes berømte møder med vilde chimpanser i Tanzania i 1960’erne og siden hendes utrættelige kamp for miljøet har gjort, at hun betragtes som en gudmor for den nye klimabevidsthed."Håbets bog" bygger på Goodalls viden, som er opsamlet gennem et liv dedikeret til naturen, og viser os, hvordan vi kan finde styrke til at håbe i en verden af kriser: klimatruslen, pandemien og krige. Især klimaforandringerne har Goodalls bevågenhed. Selv har forfatteren et bestandigt håb for kloden og menneskeheden. Gennem samtaler med medforfatter Douglas Abrams viser hun læseren en konstruktiv vej fremad gennem kriserne, hvor vi hver især kan skabe ny grobund for at mærke håbet i en verden, der til tider kan synes håbløs.Jane Goodall, født 1934, er grundlægger af Jane Goodall Institute og er fredsambassadør i FN-regi.

Ud over at være medforfatter på "Glædens bog" med Dalai Lama og Desmond Tutu har han arbejdet med andre Nobelprisvindere, herunder Nelson Mandela, Jody Williams og Elizabeth Blackburn.“En sand helt.” Greta Thunberg “En af de mest indflydelsesrige og vigtige foregangskvinder på planeten. Jane bruger nærmest hver dag på at sprede optimisme og gøre folk i hele verden bevidste om Jordens problemer. Hendes kraftfulde budskab er at beskytte hver enkelt levende skabnings indbyggede rettigheder, at give håb til kommende generationer og at slå til lyd for et presserende opråb mod den største miljømæssige trussel: klimaforandringerne.” Leonardo DiCaprio
