Описание: In this delightfully devilish coloring book, Amy Stewart and Briony Morrow-Cribbs bring us the forty most menacing botanical atrocities from their "New York Times" bestseller "Wicked Plants." Morrow-Cribbs s exquisite etchings are now finely rendered coloring book art and are paired with brief facing-page text from the original book. Together, each spread offers a fascinating portrait of the evildoers of the plant world, from the vine that ate the South (kudzu) to the weed that killed Lincoln s mother (white snakeroot) to the world s deadliest seed (rosary pea). For nature lovers, garden enthusiasts, and coloring book addicts who think they ve seen it all, here s a coloring book they didn t see coming: breathtakingly beautiful plants that maim, intoxicate, inflict pain, and even murder."

Описание: Science writers get into the game with all kinds of noble, high-minded ambitions. We want to educate. To enlighten," notes guest editor Amy Stewart in her introduction to The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2016. "But at the end of the day, we're all writers . . . We're here to play for the folks." The writers in this anthology brought us the year's highest notes in the genre. From a Pulitzer Prize-winning essay on the earthquake that could decimate the Pacific Northwest to the astonishing work of investigative journalism that transformed the nail salon industry, this is a collection of hard-hitting and beautifully composed writing on the wonders, dangers, and oddities of scientific innovation and our natural world.
