pickThis popular science book looks at a variety of current projects intended to bring back extinct species—wooly mammoth, passenger pigeon, aurochs, dinosaurs. She also looks at attempts to engineer the DNA of corals and the functionally extinct American chestnut. Ethics issues are addressed. I found this book to be fascinating and balanced, there is a lot to think about! Also: cloning is not a thing for extinct animals!
