The Overstory (Richard Powers)

The Secret Life of Trees. “People aren’t the apex species they think they are. Other creatures-bigger, smaller, slower, faster, older, younger, more powerful-call the shots, make the air, and eat sunlight. Without them, nothing.”

Wild Dark Shore

Mystery, thrills, and rare seeds at the edge of the world. "They do not seem like they could belong to the same species, but maybe it is the animal in me that feels the love, the human that can detach from it.”

An Immense World (Ed Yong)

Your dog is living in a parallel universe. So is that bird. So are you. From magnetic fields to ultraviolet light to electric currents, Ed Young exposes the sensory worlds that are invisible to us, but everything to the creatures around us. “Earth teems with sights and textures, sounds and vibrations, smells and tastes, electric and magnetic fields. But every animal can only tap into a small fraction of realities fullness. Each is enclosed within its own unique sensory bubble, perceiving but a tiny silver of an immense world.”

Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness (Peter Godfrey-Smith)

“This is probably the closest we will come to meeting an intelligent alien.”
