Vanished: An Unnatural History of Extinction
A sweeping history of how extinction became a modern scientific idea and a political choice. Sadiah Qureshi traces the intertwined histories of species loss, empire, race and genocide, revealing how accounts of supposedly inevitable disappearance have shaped both conservation and human persecution—and asking how a more just relationship with the living world might alter our future.
