★★★☆☆

This is a detailed examination of the various senses possessed by animals. Some will be intimately familiar to you - like sight and sound - whereas some will seem strange and uncanny - like magnetic detection…

@Edent This was a great beach read for me last year. I do tend to agree that it was over detailed in parts but perhaps I have a higher tolerance for fluff. I did find myself wishing that some parts were shorter so I could read about the next cool animal sooner.

I reviewed the book myself here: https://sheep.horse/2026/2/two_non-fiction_books_touching_on_evolutionary_bio.html
