NEW BOOK!
Dr Lucy recently co-edited a new book with poet Christopher Kondrich and fiction writer Susan Tacent. Creature Needs: Writers Respond to the Science of Animal Conservation is a polyvocal call to arms about animal extinction and habitat loss that harnesses the power of literature and scientific research to move us, and stir our hearts and minds, toward action and change. This book emerged from the work of Creature Conserve.
In this presentation for TEDxProvidence, Dr Lucy makes the case for connecting the arts and sciences to improve conservation outcomes.
