This book is the biography of George Steller - an extraordinary scientist who possessed indefatigable curiosity, incredible hard work and rare breadth of interests. Steller was a naturalist in the great northern expedition of Vitus Bering and left us invaluable material about the natural environment of Kamchatka, Alaska and the Far East.
But the work of the Finnish writer and popularizer of science aura Koyivisto is not only historical. First of all, the author’s goal was to draw our attention to what now, in our life, is happening with nature and the environment. Steller"s cow open by the scientist is an animal that disappeared from the face of the earth for some 27 years. Stellerova Korova died, and the world again became a slightly lonely place. This phrase belongs to the marine zoologist Victor B. Sheffer, and it is hardly possible to describe extinction better. The responsibility of a person, his role and a place among neighbors on the planet are the topics that Koyivisto raises in his book
