Shapeshifters: The Wondrous World of Jellyfish
A breathtaking collection of photographs and expert commentary, Shapeshifters: The Wondrous World of Jellyfish by Lisa-ann Gershwin sheds light on the most mysterious creatures of the deep sea.
- These ancient creatures, also called sea jellies (they are not, technically, fish), are otherworldly and luminous—it's no wonder they are compared to mythical shapeshifters
- Some are so delicate that they shatter with the smallest disturbance to the water
- The tenacity of others means they can withstand almost any temperature, almost any salinity, starvation and even being dismembered; some are truly biologically immortal
