'Spellbinding . . .Higgins makes popular science accessible.' - ObserverThe peacock mantis shrimp can throw a punch that can fracture aquarium walls. .More than any other book, [Sentient] has made me think differently about the world this year.' - Financial Times Best Books of the Year'Lyrical and lucid . .
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. The great grey owl can hear many decibels lower than the human ear. 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.
