A photo of three books standing on a small, brown, wooden table. The out-of-focus background shows black shelves full of books and part of the beech-coloured laminate floor.

On the left, standing up, True Nature, showing a hardback with a black-and-white photo of a young man in a white short-sleeved blouse and white trousers, sitting on the ground with his back against an old tree with a thick trunk.

In the middle, lying down, On Natural Capital, showing a white paperback with a teal-coloured border and a small black-and-white drawing of a mangrove tree, showing both its crown and its exposed root system.

On the right, standing up, The Last Butterflies, showing a white hardback with a colour photo showing half of a butterfly at the very bottom of the cover, with title, subtitle, and author name above it.
