emilily's review against another edition

On the surface, this book may seem like it's about David Starr Jordan, and his dark legacy as an ichthyologist-turned-eugenicist (and maybe also murderer?). But in truth, it is so much more. This book is about human knowledge, its limitations, and the evolution of how we understand the world around us. With traces of philosophy, memoir, nature writing, historical critique, and sociology, there is something in this beautifully hopeful book for everyone. And yes, it will make you reconsider if fish actually exist (I have been converted to believing they don't).
