In An Immense World, Ed Yong coaxes us beyond the confines of our own senses, allowing us to perceive the skeins of scent, waves of electromagnetism, and pulses of pressure that surround us. The argument in An Immense World develops through scientific research, fieldwork, and carefully chosen case studies, attending to both broad patterns and the revealing details that resist them. That perspective connects how animal senses reveal the hidden realms around us to larger questions in nature and science, without losing sight of the people living through the consequences.
