The Author & Speaker Series: Juli Berwald

In her book Spineless: The Science of Jellyfish and the Art of Growing a Backbone, Julie Berwald, a former ocean scientist, goes in pursuit of the slippery story of jellyfish, rediscovering her passion for marine science and the sea's imperiled ecosystems. Gracefully blending personal memoir with crystal-clear distillations of science, Spineless reveals that jellyfish are a bellwether for the damage we're inflicting on the climate and the oceans and a call to realize our collective responsibility for the planet we share.
