Egypt has been home since the time of Christ to an ancient sect of Christians called the Copts. According to legend, Mark the Evangelist founded their first church in Alexandria in the 1st century ad, when Egypt was under Roman rule & practised polytheistic religions.

While writing this book, Steve Jones had beside him the coral brooch that his sea captain grandfather brought back across the Indian Ocean as a gift for his wife. This simple object is a starting point for a dazzling narrative that touches on a number of the most important issues facing us today. Following in the footsteps of Darwin & Captain Cook, Jones reveals what coral has to tell us about the human genome project, cloning, & the possibility of a cure for cancer & genetic diseases; what insights it can offer us into the future of trade in oil & other forms of carbon; how it is linked to the fluctuations in weather patterns that have lead to destruction along the coasts of the Americas & the Far East. Finally, Jones considers what coral
- exploited & destroyed in many ways & under siege from climate change
- tells us about the likely future of the planet & humankind: it is a warning that both may be close to the point of no return. CORAL: A PESSIMIST IN PARADISE is an inspired, eclectic book that links science with history, literature, politics & myth. It belongs to a vivid tradition of thinking & writing about humankind & its place in nature.
