Specificatii
Are plants intelligent? Can they solve problems, communicate, and
navigate their surroundings? Or are they passive, incapable of
independent action or social behavior? Philosophers and scientists
have pondered these questions since ancient Greece, most often
concluding that plants are unthinking and inert: they are too
silent, too sedentary -- just too different from us. Yet
discoveries over the past fifty years have challenged these ideas,
shedding new light on the extraordinary capabilities and complex
interior lives of plants. In Brilliant Green, Stefano Mancuso, a
leading scientist and founder of the field of plant neurobiology,
presents a new paradigm in our understanding of the vegetal world.
Combining a historical perspective with the latest in plant
science, Mancuso argues that, due to cultural prejudices and human
arrogance, we continue to underestimate plants. In fact, they
process information, sleep, remember, and signal to one another --
showing that, far from passive machines, plants are intelligent and
aware. Through a survey of plant capabilities from sight and touch
to communication, Mancuso challenges our notion of intelligence,
presenting a vision of plant life that is more sophisticated than
most imagine. Plants have much to teach us, from network building
to innovations in robotics and man-made materials -- but only if we
understand more about how they live. Part botany lesson, part
manifesto, Brilliant Green is an engaging and passionate
examination of the inner workings of the plant kingdom. Financial
