About the book

The Ocean's Menagerie by Drew Harvell is an environment and climate book for adult readers.

From a world-renowned marine biologist comes is a transporting exploration of how the strangest and most remarkable creatures on our planet are informing cutting-edge science. A transporting exploration of the deep sea, and how our planet's strangest, most ancient and astonishing creatures have urgent relevance to cutting-edge science today.

Hundred-year-old giant clams, coral kingdoms the size and shape of cities, and jellyfish that glow in the dark: ocean invertebrates are among the oldest and most diverse organisms on Earth, seeming to bend the rules of land-based biology. Although sometimes unseen in the deep, these incredible spineless creatures contain 600 million years of adaptation to problems of disease, energy consumption, nutrition, and defence.
