From Savannah to Sofa. The Evolutionary History of Cats
Evolutionary biologist Jonathan Losos deciphers complex scientific and historical puzzles, explains how modern researchers unveil the mysteries of the feline past and present using advanced scientific technologies—ranging from GPS tracking to genomics and forensic archaeology—and shows how, over the last few thousand years, natural and artificial selection have shaped the modern cat, which in a relatively short time has become the most successful and diverse biological species on the planet.
Humans change cats, and in turn, they change the world around them, and this fascinating and fact-filled book discusses what the future holds for both Felis catus and Homo sapiens.
