Sinopsis

Sharks, often feared and misunderstood, are revealed in Shark Facts as vital keystone species essential to healthy ocean ecosystems. This exploration of marine biology dispels myths, diving into the remarkable sensory capabilities that allow sharks to navigate and hunt with precision. For instance, electroreception enables them to detect the faint electrical fields of prey, while their keen sense of smell can track scents over vast distances.

 
The book progresses from evolutionary history and sensory systems to hunting behaviors and ecological roles, demonstrating how these apex predators shape food webs and influence other marine life. Understanding shark behavior and the impact of their presence or absence is crucial for effective shark conservation. Shark Facts translates complex research into accessible language, making it a valuable resource for students, naturalists, and anyone interested in the natural history of our oceans.

Part catharsis, part diagnosis, this divinely wry collection from New Yorker and McSweeney's satirist Eli Grober will strike a chord with those who are dismayed by the chaos of our times. None of it will help—but a few good laughs won't hurt. Probably. 
 
 
 
There's a lot going on, all the time. It may feel overwhelming. Don't worry. It will end. This Won't Help is here for you in the meantime—with 100 short, sharp, satirical essays that skewer a world raging with inaction, while maximizing the profits of self-destruction. As if that would help! 
 
 
 
Eli Grober's biting, Swiftian prose spares no one—not the megalomaniacal billionaire fleeing Earth for a better life on unlivable Mars, not an extremely online family living completely off-grid, not even a fossil-fuel lobbyist insisting we all stop using straws. (Eli does spare a kind thought for the supremely intelligent listeners with the good sense to buy this book.) Maybe, just maybe, descending through the inferno of our environmental, economic, and political landscape will help us find real solutions to the hypocrisy and dysfunction that surrounds us. But probably not.
