Andrea Wulf in conversation with Rosie Boycott

The invention of nature.

Arequipa 2018, 

Andrea Wulf is the author of the prize-winning The Invention of Nature, a biography that can be read as an exciting and entertaining adventure story. In it, she tells us about the experiences of Alexander von Humboldt, the great German explorer who opened the doors onto a view of nature that we still share today. Andrea Wulf will talk to the journalist Rosie Boycott about all the different ways of looking at something as ambiguous and abstract as nature.
