Dunne shares surprising findings from her research of food webs, the
networks of who eats whom in nature. After revealing hidden ecological
order, she explores the underlying forces that constrain and organize
ecosystems across hundreds of millions of years, from the explosion of
biodiversity in the deep-time Cambrian period, long before the dinosaurs,
to the deteriorating condition of ecosystems in the present day. She then
describes characteristics that can fortify ecosystems against species loss
and environmental change.
