Reviews for Nature Is Never Silent: How Animals and Plants Communicate with Each Other

'It's always amazing how talkative nature is - very enlightening and entertaining!' -- Peter Wohlleben, author of The Hidden Life of Trees 'In accessible language [Ziege] reports on fascinatingly clever chemical communication among bacteria; tells how wild rabbits coordinate and how badgers warn their enemies ... Mushrooms set traps, fish lie, and fox and fir tree say goodnight. Illuminating brain food.' -- OOE News 'Communication between animals and plants takes on a whole new dimension.' -- Mittagzmagazin 'Tanya Schneider's lilting Australian accent adds liveliness to this captivating look at how living beings send and receive information with other beings, what impedes or facilitates the communication, and why this is important for us to understand. Schneider's delight as she describes plants, animals, and their interactions is intricate and engaging. The enlightening data will leave listeners in awe of how much is yet to be learned and discovered in our vast environment.' -- AudioFile
