The Eloquence of the Sardine by Bill Francois

Drawing on history, myth and legend, but always grounded in science, The Eloquence of the Sardine will change the way you think about the sea in the most poetic of ways.
An illuminating debut collection. . François's tone is conversational, and his passion and excitement are contagious . . . a fun deep dive into marine life * Publishers Weekly *
With an elegant mix of storytelling, science, and humour, François delights us with his infectious love of life beneath the waves. These aquatic reveries pry open the oceans' mysteries to reveal pearls within * Jonathan Balcombe, author of Super Fly, and What a Fish Knows *
Bill François is a physicist passionate about the marine world. He studied at the ENS school in Paris and then devoted himself to research on hydrodynamics. The eloquence contests he won, like the Le Grand Oral on France 2, propelled him to become passionate about his other world: that of words. He mixes these universes to relay the importance of protecting our oceans.
