The latest edition of The New Yorker magazine (5 April 2021) carries an excellent article by Kathryn Schultz. It’s a review of the science of animal navigation based on her careful reading of several recent books on the subject, including my own Supernavigators. As you might expect from a Pulitzer Prize-winning writer, it’s lucid and elegant - and well worth a read.
