Summary "The dignified seahorse, the billowing jelly, and the stealthy octopus: We long to see every aspect of their graceful forms. For more than a decade, celebrated nature photographer David Littschwager has traveled the world to reveal their mysterious beauty. His extraordinary images will bring you closer than ever to these colorful and enigmatic creatures."--Back cover
In this ode to some of the most wondrous species on Earth, a celebrated photographer and several best-selling science writers explain how a creature without a brain or without bones perceives the world, discussing the biology and advanced cognitive abilities of these spineless denizens of the deep.
