This year's collection masterfully guides us through exotic locations and groundbreaking research, leading us to consider complex and utterly fascinating questions about the world. How does it feel to camp in one of the hottest places on Earth? Is the ability to recognize and remember faces a sign of intelligence? What does it mean for a species to be wild or invasive--are city pigeons and rats less deserving than the coyotes that recently wandered down from Westchester? Encompassing the strangeness and, at times, severity of our world, these stories are urgent, vital, and ultimately inspiring. As Orlean eloquently observes, \"Science keeps unlocking mysteries, revealing secrets, helping us heal. And as imperiled as nature seems, it remains amply, gloriously gorgeous: The world is still full of beauty.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eTHE BEST AMERICAN SCIENCE AND NATURE WRITING 2025 \u003c\/em\u003eINCLUDES\u003cem\u003e: \u003c\/em\u003eFERRIS JABR - EMILY RABOTEAU - RIVKA GALCHEN - BEN GOLDFARB - DAVID NAIMON - TOM MCALLISTER - KATIE ENGELHART - AND OTHERS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGreen, Jaime:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJaime Green\u003c\/strong\u003e, series editor, is a science writer and essayist.
