" Daniel Pauly] is an iconoclastic fisheries scientist ... who is so decidedly global in his life and outlook that he is nearly a man without a country."--NEW YORK TIMES
"Daniel Pauly is a friend whose work has inspired me for years."--TED DANSON
Daniel Pauly is a living legend in the world of marine biology. He is also a man whose life has been shaped by struggle. In this first authorized biography, writer David Gr millet recounts the scientist's extraordinary life, including his heartbreaking childhood, his escape to Germany, his political and racial reawakening in 1960s America, and his one-of-a-kind career as a brave scientist who blew the whistle on overfishing.
Daniel Pauly was born in Paris after the Second World War to a white French mother and a Black American GI father. When his father left for America, Pauly's mother fell prey to a manipulative white family who adopted Pauly under murky circumstances. Pauly was taken to Switzerland, where he was treated cruelly as the family's live-in servant. Contact with his mother was prohibited. Against all odds, Pauly finished high school and fled to Germany, where he enrolled in university.
In Germany, Pauly blossomed. He pursued a career in oceanography, eventually travelling the world to conduct his groundbreaking, data-driven scientific research method. Pauly famously coined the influential term "shifting baselines," in which knowledge of environmental degradation is lost over time, leading to a misguided understanding of what we have helped destroy. He also blew the whistle on the powerful global fishing industry, alerting the public to the impacts of overfishing on our planet.
Told through interviews with Pauly himself, family, teachers, colleagues, and friends, Grémillet recounts Pauly's life with remarkable pace and precision. Epic, captivating, and inspiring, The Ocean's Whistleblower introduces one of the most important scientists of our time.

Описание: Welcome to another journey into the dark, dysfunctional underbelly of New Mexico. Our reluctant hero navigates his way through new towns and clients, facing multiple near-death experiences as he fights for the rights of the guilty and absurdly stupid. Along the way, you will encounter steroid-enhanced hillbillies, b***h-slapping cross-dressers, and gun-toting Nazis, all out on a binge. Moronic drug dealers, drunken strippers dancing under a full moon, and a gun-filled Mexican standoff at McDonalds will have you cancelling your plans to visit New Mexico immediately. Dashing through the heroin dens of Espanola, you sneer at nouveau riche tourists in Santa Fe before flying to Roswell and learning the truth behind the Alien spacecraft crash of 1947. Expensive Janitor: Deeper Clean brings back some of your favorite characters; Abdul the Pakistani repo guy and Phoebe, the office manager who is always packing heat, while introducing new characters whose lives are so messed up, you won't believe it until you read it.
