Nature’s Compass

(Princeton University Press) This book examines how animals find their way across water, land, and the sky; navigation strategies of familiar and rare species are investigated. Ultimately, the authors ask if the disruption of migratory paths through habitat destruction and global warming is affecting and endangering animal species. James L. Gould is a professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at Princeton University; his wife, Carol Grant Gould, is a widely published science writer.
