Do lions and tigers meow and if not, why? Where and how did cats make an evolutionary leap, leaving the African savannah? Why does a cat leave a dead mouse at your feet, or even on your pillow? Is keeping an ocelot at home really that bad? And what did cats mean in Egyptian hieroglyphics? Evolutionary biologist Jonathan Losos deciphers complex scientific and historical mysteries, discovers how modern researchers are unlocking the mysteries of felines' past and present using cutting-edge scientific technologies - from GPS tracking to genomics and forensic archaeology, and shows how over the past few millennia, natural and artificial selection have shaped the modern cat, which in a relatively short period of time has become the most successful and diverse biological species on the planet. People change cats, and they, in turn, change the world around them, and this is an exciting and curious The book tells, among other things, what the future holds for both Felis catus and Homo sapiens.
