Justice for the starfish. Towards the recognition of the rights of the ocean. This small book of less than 100 grams will climb any baggage at a time when there is still time to spend a vacation by the sea. And will make us sensitive to the incredible richness of ecosystems that are hidden under the bluish surface. From their great fragility, terrible threats that weigh on them if we are urgently ceasing to behave as predators.
The originality of this book of interviews consists in crossing two militant looks: that of a lawyer, Marine Calmet, and that of the Oceanographer and diver François Sarano. A dialogue between law and science which willingly makes the detour through wonder and poetry, as in the remarkable pages describing the complexity of social relations in a clan of sperm whales made up of females and juveniles. Only empathy will allow us to realize that humans have part of a great adventure of the living, a coevolution process started almost 4 billion years ago.
