The Shark and the Jellyfish: More Stories in Natural History


Overview

In this sequel to the acclaimed """"Threads from the Web of Life"""", Stephen Daubert presents twenty-six new stories that pull the reader into the mystery and immediacy of ecological processes ranging from the microscopic to the tectonic. Many show surprising intersections of creatures from different realms or the hidden interplay of evolving organisms. These gripping stories contain a level of intimacy and detail not usually encountered in other styles of natural history writing.
