In this adventure-filled narrative, science writer Richard Stone follows two groups of explorers-one a Russian-Japanese team, the other a French-led consortium-as they battle bitter cold, high winds, and supply shortages to carry out their quest. Armed with GPS, ground-penetrating radar, and Soviet-era military helicopters, they seek an elusive prize: a mammoth carcass that will help determine how the creature lived, how it died-and how it might be brought back to life. A riveting tale of high-stakes adventure and scientific hubris, Mammoth is also an intellectual voyage through uncharted moral terrain, as we confront the promise and peril of resurrecting creatures from the deep past. | Mammoth by Richard Stone, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
