**SUNDAY TIMES and NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER** This is our world, as you've never seen it before. The Earth teems with sights and textures, sounds and vibrations, smells and tastes, electric and magnetic fields. But every animal is enclosed within its own unique sensory bubble, perceiving only a tiny sliver of this world. In An Immense World, Ed Yong coaxes us beyond the confines of our own senses, welcoming us into previously unfathomable dimensions - the world as it is truly perceived by other animals. Showing us that in order to understand our world we don't need to travel to other places; we need to see through other eyes. A NEW YORK TIMES, GUARDIAN, ECONOMIST, SPECTATOR, TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT and NEW STATESMAN BOOK OF THE YEAR **Winner of 2023 Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction** 'Immersive and mind-blowing' Peter Wohlleben, author of The Hidden Life of Trees 'A book that prompts awe at the world around us' Sunday Times 'Suffused with magic' Siddhartha Mukherjee, author of The Song of the Cell 'Magnificent' Guardian
