<p><strong>The <em>New York Times</em>?bestselling "exploration of the world from a piscine perspective . . . makes a persuasive case that what fish know is quite a lot" (Elizabeth Kolbert, The New York Review of Books).</strong><br /> Do fishes think? Do they really have three-second memories? And can they recognize the humans who peer back at them from above the surface of the water? In <em>What a Fish Knows</em>, ethologist Jonathan Balcombe addresses these questions and more, revealing the surprising capabilities of fishes. Upending our assumptions about fishes, Balcombe portrays them not as unfeeling, dead-eyed feeding machines but as sentient, aware, social, and even Machiavellianーin other words, much like us.<br /> <em>What a Fish Knows</em> draws on the latest science to present a fresh look at these remarkable creatures. Fishes conduct elaborate courtship rituals and develop lifelong bonds with shoalmates. They also plan, hunt cooperatively, use tools, curry favor, deceive one another, and punish wrongdoers.<br /> Highlighting breakthrough discoveries from around the world and pondering his own encounters with fishes, Balcombe examines the fascinating means by which fishes gain knowledge of the places they inhabit, from shallow tide pools to the deepest reaches of the ocean. Teeming with insights and exciting discoveries <em>, What a Fish Knows</em> will forever change how we see our aquatic cousinsーthe pet goldfish included.<br /> <strong>Longlisted for the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award</strong><br /> "Balcombe vividly shows that fish have feelings and deserve consideration and protection like other sentient beings." ーThe Dalai Lama<br /> "[An] exhaustively researched and elegantly written argument for the moral claims of ichthyofauna." ーNathan Heller, <em>The New Yorker</em><br /> "Engrossing." ー <em>Nature</em><br /> "With the vivacious energy of a cracking good storyteller . . . Balcombe makes a convincing case." ー <em>Publishers Weekly</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
