Book Synopsis
Touching on topics ranging from seed banks to science fiction to bird-watching, Elizabeth Callaway argues that there is no set, generally accepted way to measure biodiversity. While using biodiversity as a way to talk about the world aims to highlight what is most valued in nature, it can produce narratives that reinforce power differentials.

Trade Review

From birding memoirs and science fiction to seed-saving vaults and evolutionary ‘supertrees,’ this book serves as a primer to biodiversity concepts and explanations for a non-scientific audience.
