In [this book], Beth Shapiro, evolutionary biologist and pioneer in 'ancient DNA' research, walks readers through the astonishing and controversial process of de-extinction. From deciding which species should be restored, to sequencing their genomes, to anticipating how revived populations might be overseen in the wild, Shapiro vividly explores the extraordinary cutting-edge science that is being used--today--to resurrect the past"--Amazon.com.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 660.6 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 660.6 Shapiro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 660.6 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 660.6 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList
