An Immense World by Ed Yong, Read by the Author
An Enthusiastic Tour of the Sensory Worlds of Animals
Every Monday through Friday, AudioFile’s editors recommend the best in audiobook listening. We keep our daily episodes short and sweet, with audiobook clips to give you a sample of our featured listens.
In An Immense World, science writer Ed Yong is an enthusiastic guide through the world of animal senses—many very different from our own. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss the incredible examination of the multifaceted world of animal senses. Listeners join Ed as he visits labs, talks with researchers, and gets out in the field. He is a capable translator of scientific descriptions, keeping listeners engaged all the while. Listeners will learn much about the vast world that exists beyond our ken, and will be urged to consider the world through the eyes, ears, noses, and toes of our fellow creatures.
