I kept hoping the author would stop talking about fossils and talk more about the ecology, psychology, and sociology of whales, but I had misguided expectations. The author is a paleontologist, and even in the "present" and "future" sections of the book he focuses mostly on dead whales. The good news about global warming is that it looks like endangered whales will have a heftier food supply, so there's that.
