Summary
Pulitzer Prize-winning science writer for the New York Times offers her essays on the beauty of organisms usually considered beastly, and the beastliness behind conventional icons of beauty in the natural world. Admitting she "anthropomorphizes shamelessly," she humorously discusses commonalities… that humans share with other species. Topics include loving, adapting, healing, creating, and dying. Some descriptions of violence. 1995.
