Krátky popis
'A joy to read ... mind-expanding' Book of the Week, Guardian'A
bold and brave paean to our planet's ligneous, leafy kingdom'
Telegraph'An impressive exploration and dazzling insight into the
lives of plants' Reaction Book Digest What is it like to be a
plant?It's not a question we might think to contemplate, even
though many of us live surrounded by plants. Science has long
explored the wonderful ways in which plants communicate, behave and
shape their environments: from chemical warfare to turning their
predators to cannibalism.But they're usually just the backdrop to
our frenetic animal lives. While plants may not have brains or move
around as we do, cutting-edge science is revealing that they have
astonishing inner worlds of an alternate kind to ours. They can
plan ahead, learn, recognise their relatives, assess risks and make
decisions.They can even be put to sleep. Innovative new tools might
allow us to actually see them do these things - from
electrophysiological recordings to MRI and PET scans. If you can
look in the right way, a world full of drama unfurls.In PLANTA
SAPIENS, Professor Paco Calvo offers a bold new perspective on
plant biology and cognitive science. Using the latest scientific
findings, Calvo challenges us to make an imaginative leap into a
world that is so close and yet so alien - one that will expand our
understanding of our own minds. From their rich subjective
experiences to how they are inspiring novel ways of approaching the
ecological crisis, PLANTA SAPIENS is a dazzling exploration of the
lives of plants and a call to approach how we think about the
natural world in a new, maverick way.
