The Whale: In Search of the Giants of the Sea by Philip Hoare

4.0

A great read. I wouldn't recommend this if you're looking for a solid objective thesis on the biology and behavior of whales. Instead, Hoare's work reminds me of an earlier time in my childhood when I gazed wide-eyed at the wonders of the big wide world with perhaps more than a healthy dose of dubious science in my head. Sometimes, that's not a bad place to visit. Even if just for a while.
