There are 4 pages of additional reference notes. From the Author The book was written and designed by myself using research techniques developed when writing my monograph on Gentians. This has remained a standard work on the genus since first published in 1975. I researched each part of the story using standard reference works and contacts I had built up. The sentance each animal speaks is based on the work of recognised authorities in their fields: for instance the tiger is based on the work in India of Vandana Shiva who I know personally: Much of the inspiration for the princess came from the work in Ladak by Helena Norberg Hogde another personal friend. The central image is based on a broad Linnean classification. The concept was to pull the diverse imformation on environment, ecology and social issues into one short story to help children understand the issues. No one knows if the unicorn lived but the twelve animals which make the body do, if we don't understand the issues and act they are becoming as extinct as the unicorn.
