Fish Swallows Man

Summary

Fish Swallows Man explores the age-old question: Could a person survive being swallowed whole by a fish? By merging marine biology, biblical narrative, and human physiology, the book examines the plausibility of the Jonah story. It delves into the digestive capabilities of large marine creatures and the human body's tolerance to extreme conditions, such as prolonged periods without air. The analysis prompts a re-evaluation of traditional interpretations through a scientific lens, considering the characteristics of fish species capable of such an act. The book provides historical context by examining accounts of human-animal encounters at sea and reviews the biological knowledge of marine life at the time the Book of Jonah was written. It presents a fact-based approach, highlighting the importance of balancing faith and reason. While improbable, the book suggests survival is not entirely impossible under specific circumstances, such as a suitable fish species and a state of reduced metabolic activity in the swallowed individual.

The book begins by establishing the historical and religious context of the Jonah story. It then progresses into a detailed exploration of potential candidate fish species, such as whales and whale sharks, before assessing the human body's tolerance to stressors like lack of oxygen and digestive acids. Fish Swallows Man synthesizes biological data to present possible survival scenarios and their associated probabilities, offering a unique perspective for those interested in science, religion, and the intersection of faith and reason.

The Human Planet - How We...

Simon L. Lewis, Mark A. Maslin

An exploration of the Anthropocene and “a relentless reckoning of how we, as a species, got ourselves into the mess we’re in today” (The Wall Street Journal). 
 
Meteorites, mega-volcanoes, and plate tectonics—the old forces of nature—have transformed Earth for millions of years. They are now joined by a new geological force—humans. Our actions have driven Earth into a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene. For the first time in our home planet's 4.5-billion-year history a single species is increasingly dictating Earth’s future. 
 
To some the Anthropocene symbolizes a future of superlative control of our environment. To others it is the height of hubris, the illusion of our mastery over nature. Whatever your view, just below the surface of this odd-sounding scientific word—the Anthropocene—is a heady mix of science, philosophy, history, and politics linked to our deepest fears and utopian visions. 
 
Tracing our environmental impacts through time, scientists Simon Lewis and Mark Maslin reveal a new view of human history and a new outlook for the future of humanity in the unstable world we have created.
