Wild Scientists

A look at animals and plants from the point of view of their amazing scientific adaptations.

Join bestselling author Steve Mould to uncover nature's greatest scientists, engineers, and mathematicians from plants that can count to architect insects. If you thought all scientists wear white coats and work in labs, think again!

Meet amazing engineers, such as the spiders who build immense webs from different kinds of silk; funky physicists, like the bats that can see with sound; and surprising chemists, such as the corpse flower that smells like smelly socks to attract insects to pollinate it! The science behind each genius adaptation is explained clearly in Steve Mould's trademark humorous style and you'll be amazed by nature's solutions to some of the world's trickiest problems.

Wild Scientists is a brilliant introduction to some of nature's cleverest animals and plants. You'll never look at nature the same way again!

O privire asupra animalelor si plantelor din punctul de vedere al adaptarilor lor stiintifice uimitoare. Alaturati-va autorului cel mai bine vandut Steve Mold pentru a descoperi cei mai mari oameni de stiinta, ingineri si matematicieni din natura din plante care pot fi considerate insecte arhitect. Daca ati crezut ca toti oamenii de stiinta poarta haine albe si lucreaza in laboratoare, ganditi-va din nou! Faceti cunostinta cu ingineri uimitori, cum ar fi paianjenii care construiesc panze imense din diferite tipuri de matase; fizicieni funky, cum ar fi liliecii care pot vedea cu sunet; si chimisti surprinzatori, precum floarea cadavrului care miroase a sosete mirositoare pentru a atrage insectele sa o polenizeze!
