One of the world’s most widely traveled photographers presents images unlike any we have seen before, and unlikely to be seen again.

“This book is more than a photographic volume—it is a quiet yet powerful appeal to recognize cultural diversity as a shared human heritage. Over more than three decades, renowned photographer Michael Runkel has visited communities on every continent whose ways of life are increasingly threatened by climate change, globalization and land dispossession. His photographs portray people whose identities are inseparably linked to landscape, ritual and community—dignified, authentic and on equal terms.

Across generously designed chapters, a visual journey unfolds: from the rituals and communities of Africa to the nomads of the Siberian tundra, the body cultures of South and Southeast Asia, the celebrations of Oceania and the Indigenous peoples of South America.”
