NOTES
This anthology collects some of the year's best science and nature writing-from climate change to killer beetles, an exposé of nail salons, and more. As guest editor, Amy Stewart says in her introduction, "science writers get into the game with all kinds of noble, high-minded ambitions. We want to educate. To enlighten...But at the end of the day, we're all writers. We're just like novelists, memoirists, and poets. We're entertainers." The writers in this anthology pull off that wonderful feat of turning hard research into page-turning narrative
