'Extinction' showcases ten years of photographing endangered and extinct specimens in The Field Museum in Chicago. The images lead the reader to the species' stories, promoting a greater understanding of conservation efforts, reasons for decline (including climate change, habitat loss, and overexploitation) and mankind's stewardship of life on Earth at a critical time in history. The book illustrates the crucial importance of museum collections for conservation, education and research. The book has been designed to have pages with black backgrounds for extinct species and white backgrounds for species nearing extinction.
