Description: "Millipedes and Moon Tigers explores those uneasy places where scientific research meets public policy-making - and the resulting human effect on our natural and historical landscapes. Steve Nash's eye gravitates toward those specific, contemporary stories whose relevance does not diminish with a turn of the calendar's page, for they represent larger, looming issues." --Book Jacket.
