Description
At the heart of this book by Nobel Prizeāwinning immunologist and professor Peter Doherty is this striking observation: Birds detect danger to our health and the environment before we do. Following a diverse cast of bird species around the worldāfrom tufted puffins in Puget Sound to griffon vultures in India, pigeons in East Asia, and wedge-tailed shearwaters off the islands of Australiaās Great Barrier ReefāDoherty illuminates birdsā role as an early warning system for threats to the health of our planet and our own well-being.
Their Fate Is Our Fate is an impassioned call not only to attention but to action. As ācitizen scientistsā we can collect data, vital to cutting-edge research, that depends on the birds that are all around us. Armed with our observations, scientists will continue to uncover new ways to glimpse our future in birdsāand to affirm how, truly, their fate is our fate.
