How does a Venus flytrap know when to snap shut? Can it feel an insect’s spindly legs? How do flowers know when it’s spring? Can they actually remember the weather? And do they care if you play them Led Zeppelin or Bach?
From Darwin’s early fascination with stems and vines to Little Shop of Horrors, we have always marveled at plant diversity and form. Now, in What a Plant Knows, the renowned biologist Daniel Chamovitz presents an intriguing and refreshing look at how plants experience the world. Highlighting the latest research in plant science, he takes us into the lives of different types of plants, and draws parallels with the human senses to reveal that we have much more in common with sunflowers and oak trees than we may realize. He explains how a willow knows when its neighbors have been taken over by a group of hungry beetles, and why an avocado will ripen in a paper bag with a banana (it’s the pheromones). He shows how plants know up from down, and settles the debate, once and for all, over whether or not plants appreciate that music you’ve been playing. Covering touch, sound, smell, sight, and even memory, Chamovitz considers whether it’s too much to ask if plants are aware.
What a Plant Knows is a rare inside look at what life is really like for the grass we walk on, the flowers we sniff, and the trees we climb. It is a true field guide to the senses for science buffs and green thumbs, and for anyone who seeks a greater understanding of our place in nature.
具體描述
讀後感
我们现在所知道的植物学常识，看起来非常简单。但是得到那个结论，背后所蕴含的过程与智慧是大部分人所不知道的。读这本《植物知道生命的答案》会给你一种探索新地图的感觉，它不光告诉你结论，他会告诉你这个结论是如何一点点得出来的，每一点点的进步都需要科学家有一颗细致...
評分刚在豆瓣上看到此书的推广的时候就勾起了我满满的阅读渴望。因个人的不小心，书在几经周折后才送到手上。打心底感谢某人啊！ 看到书的那刻顿觉这绿色的封面也是那么的喜洋洋！ 地球之大，植物之多，所以关于植物的了解也只是寥寥无几。因为植物随处可见，随手可得，当然稀有...
評分植物知道生命的答案，学术性的知识，易读的措辞让我很容易填补各种自己生物知识空白区。每次看到植物，都满心雀跃，嘴角上扬。植物在我内心最具有正能量，触碰它们你会感到那种淡然的心境。 植物能看到什么？植物能嗅到什么？植物能感受到什么？植物能听到什么？植物如何知道...
評分拿到书后，被封面的绿意深深吸引。翻开扉页，植物图腾的纹案映入眼帘，突显的书名，就如那些纹案一样富有生机。浓浓的油墨味有些冲鼻，仿佛闻到了某种植物为了保护自己散发的气味。书的封套很有趣，摊开来看，是彩色的植物和昆虫图案，孤陋寡闻的我只认识蜻蜓和蝴蝶，...
用戶評價
很有科普性，很像一篇論文，雖然作者自己說“beyond academic research and writing"。植物就像其他生物一樣，很有意思。但是我的生物知識太差啦！
评分很受歡迎的一本植物科普小書，，2013年引進，到今天已重印瞭十多次。
评分就這麼學術的小冊子而言，算挺通俗好看的，文筆不錯。介紹瞭植物生理學的知識，迴顧瞭一些重要實驗，傳達齣人文關懷。希望中文翻譯彆毀瞭它。ps作者是鄧興旺的學生。以及達爾文好厲害……
评分作者行文很規矩，但還挺有趣～
