A world in a shell : snail stories for a time of extinctions / Thom van Dooren.

Summary:
"While snails rarely get a mention in most discussions of our sixth mass extinction event, the sad reality is that they are disappearing more rapidly than any other species, and Hawai'i's snails are amongst the hardest hit. Following snail trails through the islands' forests, laboratories, museums, and even a military training facility, this book explores processes of ecological and cultural loss as they are woven through with possibilities for hope, care, mourning, and resilience"-- Provided by publisher.
