Aprašymas

A riveting blend of science writing and true-crime narrative that explores the valuable, but often shocking, interface between crime and nature--and the secrets each can reveal about the other--from a pioneer in forensic ecology and a trailblazing female scientist.

From mud tracks on a quiet country road to pollen grains on the soles of walking boots, forensic ecologist Patricia Wiltshire uses her decades of scientific expertise in the analysis of crime scenes to search for the truth -- eliminating hypotheses flower by flower, spore by spore, and pollen grain by pollen grain. Eventually she develops a compelling thesis of the who, what, how, and when of a crime, and her remarkable accuracy has made her one of the most in-demand police consultants in the world. It wasn't always easy being a woman in science (or law enforcement), but Wiltshire's curiosity, humility, and passion for the truth have guided her every step of the way.

The Nature of Life and Death interweaves Wiltshire's own personal journey with tales from her unique career from university to forensic ecology: solving murders, locating corpses, helping to bring murderers to justice, and exonerating the falsely accused. Along the way, she introduces us to the unseen world all around us, and underneath our feet: plants, animals, pollen, spores, fungi, and microbes, that make up the hidden world we move through every day. Her story is a testament to the power of persistence and reveals how our relationship with the vast natural world reaches far deeper than we might think.
