À propos de cet audio

The internationally best-selling author of The Hidden Life of Trees shows how we can decipher nature's secret signs by studying the weather.

In this first-ever English translation of The Weather Detective, Peter Wohlleben uses his long experience and deep love of nature to help decipher the weather and our local environments in a completely new and compelling way. Analyzing the explanations for everyday questions and mysteries surrounding weather and natural phenomena, he delves into a new and intriguing world of scientific investigation.

At what temperature do bees stay home? Why do southerly winds in winter often bring storms? How can birdsong or flower scents help you tell the time? These are among the many questions Wohlleben poses in his newly translated book. Full of the very latest discoveries, combined with ancient now-forgotten lore, The Weather Detective helps you read nature's secret signs and discover a rich new layer of meaning in the world around you.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“A guidebook on how everything we need to know about the weather can be learned by paying close attention to our natural surroundings in general and our gardens in particular…You'll never look at your garden the same way again.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“Wohlleben’s insightful observations of nature, combined with his signature blend of science and imagination, invite us into deeper relationship with the ecology of our homes.” (David George Haskell, Pulitzer finalist and author of The Forest Unseen and The Songs of Trees)

“For a society increasingly distanced from nature, Wohlleben renews our appreciation of the wonderful and varied ties between the living and nonliving worlds, including those that bind our favorite plants and animals with that most familiar of all physical entities, the weather.” (Bill Streever, nationally best-selling author of Cold)

Informative on the surface...

Very suficial analysis of the how weather, climate and nature all are continuously interacting. Though it only touches the surface of how to truly read into these signs, which is quite disappointing seeing that it is within the title of the book. The book also hold a very Euro centric focus regarding species that would as a North American reader be able to be enjoy more if there was relations to species in other regions.

The author also seems to have a very misguided opinion of wildlife and how humans not just hunters interact in the natural world. Yes indeed we have patterns of behaviour that impact other species patterns of behaviour but modern science has shown that a science based approach to wild game management has a very positive influence on it's surrounding environment. So the author seems very misguided in his views on harvesting wild game for human consumption.
