Summary:
Accompanying Radio 4's acclaimed six-month series with the Natural History Museum, Natural Histories tells the story of our relationship with the natural world. Each chapter focuses on a different creature or species, and the exploration of our reaction to them casts a fascinating light on us--the lion offers a starting point to discussing our relationship with power; the great white shark with fear; coral with the idea of paradise; and the mandrake with poisons. In the expert hands of Brett Westwood and Stephen Moss, this is translated into an imaginative and inspiring book, full of great stories. Natural Histories will bring you face to face with the natural world in all its wonder, complexity and invention.
