內容簡介
資深自然生態電影製片打造生物超感官之旅
✰ 新科學人年度最佳書籍
✰ 同時獲選金融時報年度最佳書籍
資深自然生態電影製片打造生物超感官之旅。她透過探索其他生物眼、耳、膚、舌、鼻、毛、鰭和羽的神奇功能,深究感官對人類的意義。
自然界有許多動物的感官令人驚嘆,例如:星鼻鼴的鼻尖長有廿二隻觸手,觸覺比嗅覺強;雀尾螳螂蝦擁有多種波段感光細胞,辨色能力凌駕人類的紅、綠、藍三波段;皮膚功能宛如舌頭的巨鯰,可以感知的滋味遠超過人類的味蕾。曾經為BBC、國家地理等頻道製作過多部紀錄片的自然生態電影製片人希金斯,透過12 種動物,引領讀者進入野生動物的感官世界。
'Spellbinding . . . More than any other book, Sentient has made me think differently about the world this year.' – Financial Times Best Books of the Year
The peacock mantis shrimp can throw a punch that can fracture aquarium walls.
The great grey owl can hear many decibels lower than the human ear.
The star-nosed mole’s miraculous nose allows it to catch worms in as little as 120 milliseconds.
In Sentient, Jackie Higgins assembles a menagerie of zoological creatures – from land, air, sea and all four corners of the globe – to understand what it means to be human. In it, we also meet the four-eyed spookfish and its dark vision, the vampire bat and its remarkable powers of touch, as well as the common octopus, the Goliath catfish and the duck-billed platypus. Each zoological marvel illustrates the surprising sensory powers that lie within us and enables us to engage with the world in ways we never knew possible.
'Lyrical and lucid . . . Higgins makes popular science accessible.' – Observer
