520    A compelling history of seashells and the animals that 
       make them, revealing what they have to tell us about 
       nature, our changing oceans, and ourselves. Seashells have
       been the most coveted and collected of nature's creations 
       since the dawn of humanity. They were money before coins, 
       jewelry before gems, art before canvas. In The Sound of 
       the Sea, acclaimed environmental author Cynthia Barnett 
       blends cultural history and science to trace our long love
       affair with seashells and the hidden lives of the mollusks
       that make them. Spiraling out from the great cities of 
       shell that once rose in North America to the warming 
       waters of the Maldives and the slave castles of Ghana, 
       Barnett has created an unforgettable account of the 
       world's most iconic seashells. She begins with their 
       childhood wonder, unwinds surprising histories like the 
       origin of Shell Oil as a family business importing exotic 
       shells, and charts what shells and the soft animals that 
       build them are telling scientists about our warming, 
       acidifying seas. From the eerie calls of early shell 
       trumpets to the evolutionary miracle of spines and spires 
       and the modern science of carbon capture inspired by shell,
       Barnett circles to her central point of listening to 
       nature's wisdom-and acting on what seashells have to say 
       about taking care of each other and our world.
