As Carl Safina's convincing natural-history adventure makes clear, the destiny of the leatherback turtle is in our hands. The distressing drop of these old sea turtles in Pacific waters and their unexpected recovery in the Atlantic illuminate the results - both negative and positive - in our interventions and the lessons that may be applied, globally, to revive the oceans and their creatures. We accompany award-winning natural-history expert Safina and his colleagues as they monitor leatherbacks across the world's oceans and onto remote beaches of every continent, including a thrilling voyage from Monterey, California, to nesting grounds in Papua, New Guinea. Throughout, in his peerless prose, Safina catches the delicate relationship between these gentle giants and the humans who are participating in a substantial role in their survival.
