The Woman Is Dead
Our first character awakens trapped in an empty warehouse and suffering from amnesia. Luckily, there’s entertainment: the contents of several file cabinets.

In Resurrection Science, journalist M. R. O'Connor explores the extreme measures scientists are taking to try and save them, from captive breeding and genetic management to de-extinction. Paradoxically, the more we intervene to save species, the less wild they often become. In stories of sixteenth-century galleon excavations, panther-tracking in Florida swamps, ancient African rainforests, Neanderthal tool-making, and cryogenic DNA banks, O'Connor investigates the philosop...

Biographical information, which is to be met with throughout the volume, is rendered instantly accessible by reference to the formidable index.
