06.25: Of Orcas and Men: What Killer Whales Can Teach Us

2015-05-18 22:04:43| Powells Books Events Calendar

The orca, otherwise known as the killer whale, is one of earth's most intelligent animals. Remarkably sophisticated, orcas have languages and cultures and even long-term memories. They are also benign and gentle, which makes the story of the captive-orca industry and the endangerment of their population in Puget Sound that much more damning. In Of Orcas and Men (Overlook), a marvelously compelling mix of cultural history, environmental reporting, and scientific research, David Neiwert explores an extraordinary species and its occasionally fraught relationship with human beings.
