From Savannah to Sofa. The Evolutionary History of Cats
Evolutionary biologist Jonathan Losos deciphers complex scientific and historical puzzles, revealing how modern researchers uncover the secrets of the feline past and present using cutting-edge scientific technologies—from GPS tracking to genomics and forensic archaeology—and shows how natural and artificial selection have shaped the modern cat over the past few thousand years, turning it into the most successful and diverse biological species on the planet in a relatively short time.
Humans change cats, and in turn, they change the world around them. This engaging and fact-filled book also explores what the future holds for both Felis catus and Homo sapiens.
