想想橡子蕴含了多大的能量! 在泥土中埋入一颗橡子,它就会长成一棵巨大的橡树! 如果你埋的是一头羊,它只会慢慢腐烂。 ——萧伯纳(George Bernard Shaw), 《萧伯纳的素食食谱》(The Vegetarian Diet According to Shaw,1918) 我放下手里的锤子,凝视着这粒种子,没有一...
评分生命是这个世界上最奇妙的东西,它是未知的,它总是能打破人们的想象,不断刷新着人类的认知。一粒小小的种子,甚至能够劈开一座山,它能把头顶的岩石顶出一条裂缝,这就是生命的顽强力量。正如美国自然保护先锋梭罗写道:“我对种子有莫大的信仰,若让我相信你有颗种子,我就...

We live in a world of seeds. From our morning coffee to the cotton in our clothes, seeds support diets, economies, lifestyles, and civilizations. In The Triumph of Seeds, award-winning conservation biologist Thor Hanson builds on his own triumph in Feathers—itself a masterwork of natural and cultural history—to explore seeds as both a natural phenomenon and a human one.
Spanning locations ranging from the Raccoon Lodge—Hanson’s backyard writing hideout-cum-laboratory—to the coffee plantations of the Amazon, from our flower patches and backyard gardens to the spice routes of Kerala, The Triumph of the Seeds is a book of knowledge, adventure, and wonder by an enchanting writer who embodies both the charm of stories told by the fireside at an old country store and the hard-won expertise of a professor of field biology. A worthy heir to the grand tradition of Aldo Leopold and Bernd Heinrich, this book is essential reading for anyone who loves to see a plant grow.
