The Amazon is the largest tropical rainforest in the world. An abundance of sunlight and water have created a place of superlatives: Thundering waterfalls, extremes of heat and humidity, giant trees, impenetrable undergrowth and more freshwater lakes and rivers than anywhere else. Its biological diversity is unrivaled, yet it has taken centuries to find out why. The trees jealously guard their nutrients, lacing their leaves with an array of toxins to repel would-be browsers. It is a world of specialists who have seized any opportunity, however extreme, to find a living in this struggle for existence. No wonder we have struggled to make sense of it.
