How to Clone a Mammoth - (Princeton Science Library) by Beth Shapiro (Paperback)

The book "How to Clone a Mammoth" by Beth Shapiro is an extraordinary cutting-edge science that explores the process of de-extinction, including deciding which species should be restored, sequencing their genomes, and anticipating how revived populations might be overseen in the wild.

This book provides an insider's view on bringing extinct species back to life and offers practical benefits and ethical challenges of de-extinction.

The author argues that the overarching goal should be the revitalization and stabilization of contemporary ecosystems.

With Shapiro's expertise in ancient DNA research, this book provides a vivid exploration of the science behind an idea once seen as science fiction.
