Award-winning environmentalist, author, and journalist Bill McKibben selects twenty science and nature essays that represent the best examples of the form published in the previous year.
“This was the most anomalous year (so far) in human history,” guest editor Bill McKibben writes, “the year in which the relationship between people and planet showed its most dramatic signs yet of unraveling.” The selections in The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2024 reveal a trying year for our planet—from the Lahaina wildfire tragedy to the lush Amazon jungle slowly turning to savanna—while also celebrating the earth’s beautiful and mysterious ways—from the largest beaver dam on earth to the heroic innovation to prevent birds from crashing into Chicago’s expanse of glass buildings. These essays offer solace in trying times, showing a way for a better future. They are, as McKibben says, “a reminder that this world is still a lovely and deep place, well worth the fighting for.”
The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2024 includes IAN FRAZIER • AMANDA GEFTER • DOUGLAS FOX • SARAH KAPLAN • BEN GOLDFARB • RAYMOND ZHONG • ALEX CUADROS • AND OTHERS

Title: Highly recommended
Review: I always look forward to reading the latest edition of this anthology, which features the best articles from the previous year's periodicals. Even if you're a fan of a particular genre, like science and nature writing, it's impossible to keep up with everything that's being published-especially since major newspapers have joined the magazines in setting up dedicated climate desks, as this year's editor, Bill McKibben, notes in the preface. And because climate crisis is a recurring theme in this volume, you will find some of those pieces here.Highly recommended for anyone interested in science and nature.Thanks to the publisher, Mariner Books, and NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book.
