Description:
Life innovates constantly, producing perfectly adapted species but there's a catch.
Many animals and plants eke out seemingly unremarkable lives. Passive, constrained, modest, threatened. Then, in a blink of evolutionary time, they flourish spectacularly. Once we start to look, these 'sleeping beauties' crop up everywhere. But why?
Looking at the book of life, from apex predators to keystone crops, and informed by his own cutting-edge experiments, renowned scientist Andreas Wagner demonstrates that innovations can come frequently and cheaply to nature, well before they are needed. We have found prehistoric bacteria that harbour the remarkable ability to fight off 21st-century antibiotics. And human history fits the pattern too, as life-changing technologies are invented only to be forgotten, languishing in the shadows before they finally take off.
In probing the mysteries of these sleeping beauties, Wagner reveals a crucial part of nature's rich and strange tapestry.

Huron crushes it!
Style: Shampoo & Conditioner Set
I have no idea how other reviews can speak of low lathering and not so manly scent. First, heavy lathering is not a good thing, you want a light lather so as to not remove too much natural oils. And the scent is absolutely phenomenal.
A little goes a long way. It is suggested to use a quarter size amount which for me proves to be a bit too much. And the lathering is perfect. The shampoo is amazing and my hair feels as though it was conditioned even though I have not applied the conditioner yet.
As for the conditioner, the ingredients are far better than any within a drug store type product. My hair remains soft and fantastically conditioned all day and night. Absolutely outstanding product. Far better than American Crew and other big name brands which immediately went into the trash after my second use of Huron.
The scent is totally manly and well done. The menthol is not overwhelming and the citrus comes through very well. Every other brand has a far too powerful tea tree and/or peppermint scent that actually burns my eyes.
After my second use I immediately started a subscription at their website usehuron.com. I am looking forward to using their soap bar. I prefer a bar of soap to a body wash.
I have finally found my absolute go to shampoo and conditioner. No more purchasing others for comparison. Huron is at a good price point for top tier products. It deserves way more hype when it comes to best products on the market. I am totally sold on Huron.

The Real Deal
Style: Shampoo & Conditioner Set
Fresh, clean and potent. I have probably experimented with 20 shampoo and conditioners over the past 5 years looking for one that does everything I want it to. It's a sparkling mint meets teakwood meets citrus—refreshing without being overpowering. Little goes a long way: a pea-size amount lathers well, and it's left my hair noticeably softer and more manageable over time. This high quality and light but present fragrance have made this worth it for me.
