520    For twenty years John Aitchison has been traveling the 
       world to film wildlife for a variety of international TV 
       shows, taking him to far-away places on every continent. 
       Aitchison reveals what happens behind the scenes and 
       beyond the camera. He explains the practicalities and 
       challenges of the filming process, and the problems of 
       survival in perilous places. He records touching moments 
       and dramatic incidents, some ending in success, others 
       desperately sad. There are times when a hunted animal 
       triumphs against the odds, and others when, in spite of 
       preparation for every outcome, disaster strikes. And, as 
       the author shows in several incidents that combine nail-
       biting tension with hair-raising hilarity, disaster can 
       strike for film-makers too.
