Detalles del libro

I love this book. Reading it is a delightful sensory experience... I truly enjoyed Yong's adventures in Wonderland! ? Gaia Vince, author of Transcendence

A magic well of surprising, enlightening discoveries about the sensory worlds of other species. With wit, insight, and masterful storytelling, Ed Yong invites us to sway outside ourselves and dwell in the lives of orb weavers, bats, beetles, and whales, to experience the exquisite hearing of birds that shifts with the seasons, the touch sensitivity of manatee, crocodile, and octopus, the vibrational landscapes of spiders. A brilliant book, marvellous and mesmerizing -- Jennifer Ackerman, author of The Genius of Birds

A stunning achievement - steeped in science but suffused with magic -- Siddhartha Mukherjee, author The Emperor of All Maladies

Magnificent - an unbelievably immersive and mind-blowing account of how other animals experience our world. We knew that were not alone but An Immense World shows how incredibly rich and diverse our world in fact is -- Peter Wohlleben, author of The Hidden Life of Trees and The Inner Life of Animals

An expansive, constantly revelatory exploration of the biosphere's sensorium... Ed Yong is my favourite contemporary science writer -- William Gibson, author of Neuromancer and The Peripheral
Ed Yong's first book, I Contain Multitudes, about the amazing partnerships between microbes and animals, was shortlisted for the Royal Society Science Book Prize and the Wellcome Book Prize. It was a New York Times bestseller. He is a science writer on the staff of The Atlantic, where he won the Pulitzer Prize in explanatory journalism for his coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic and the George Polk Award for science reporting, among other honours. His work has appeared in The New Yorker, National Geographic, Wired, The New York Times, Scientific American, and more. He lives in Washington, D.C.
