A biologist reveals the secret world hidden in a single square meter of forest. In this wholly original book, biologist David Haskell uses a one- square-meter patch of old-growth Tennessee forest as a window onto the entire natural world. Visiting it almost daily for one year to trace nature's path through the seasons, he brings the forest and its inhabitants to vivid life. Each of this book's short chapters begins with a simple observation: a salamander scuttling across the leaf litter; the first blossom of spring wildflowers. From these, Haskell spins a brilliant web of biology and ecology, explaining the science that binds together the tiniest microbes and the largest mammals and describing the ecosystems that have cycled for thousands- sometimes millions-of years. Each visit to the forest presents a nature story in miniature as Haskell elegantly teases out the intricate relationships that order the creatures and plants that call it home. Written with remarkable grace and empathy, "The Forest Unseen" is a grand tour of nature in all its profundity. Haskell is a perfect guide into the world that exists beneath our feet and beyond our backyards.
戴維•哈斯凱爾的研究與教學工作主要涉及生物進化和動物保護,尤其是對棲息於森林裏的鳥類和無脊椎動物的保護。除瞭發錶許多科研文章外,他還發錶瞭數篇關於科學與自然的隨筆和詩歌。哈斯凱爾因其創造性地將科學探索、冥想練習和社區行動結閤起來而獲得瞭全國關注。2009年,卡耐基基金會、凱斯基金會將他命名為田納西年度教授,該奬項隻授予獲得國傢榮譽或對大學教育做齣突齣貢獻的大學教授。“牛津美國”將他列入2011年美國南部最具創意的老師。他現在是南方大學的生物教授,生物學係主任,美國南部大學聯盟環保研究員。
The writing is first-rate; the sources first-hand. I just read through it too quickly without ruminating. But some of the curious facts still linger on my mind, such as the ways caterpillars eat leaves.
評分還可以,不是讀過最好的
評分博客來推介瞭讀者新書,就去看瞭下這本前作。貫穿四季,每章把各種生物學知識點生動有趣地有機串聯,從鞦日落葉講到蝸牛到掩護色到色盲...再點齣主題。好讀又漲知識。學識淵博又能把知識和道理傳達好並控製住煽情或抖機靈的,並不容易啊!

每天睡眠之前的最后一刻,是一本书在陪伴我,今天最后一刻和我对话的就是这本书,它在不断地改变我,直到临睡前我都在被改变。于是第二天早上起来的时候,我是一个新的人,和昨天不一样,就因为昨天晚上的阅读。——梁文道 森林的坛城 最近看了一本书叫《看不见的森林》,作...
評分20世纪某年的1月21日,博物学家戴维•乔治•哈斯凯尔呆在一片森林里,做了一项实验。这个实验很简单,仅是脱光衣服,像森林中的动物们一样,体验彻冷的寒冬。 振奋、清凉、头痛、热量流失……一分钟的寒冷体验,让哈斯凯尔渐入到了肌肉抽搐、身体战栗、心脏颤抖状态。但是...
評分书值得四星半,翻译起码得扣一星。 以下随便挑几个我认为严重的错误。 ...but my nose can detect molecules that waft out of the microscopic world, giving me a peek through my blindness. 【A peek is about all that anyone is given. 】Of the billion microbes that ...
評分 評分一沙一世界,一花一天堂。 推荐此书的原因只有一个,研究动植物的科学家没有那么感性的人文精神笔触,有优美文字能力的作家又没那么细致深入的科学研究。 此书去年就入手了,可惜每每翻两页就集中不了注意力了,有暴殄天物之觉而束回书架,此番被迫静养倒契机慢慢细读,竟进入...
