Reviews
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 In the forest and in your own garden, things are... anything but quiet and calm, as Madlen Ziege, in a light and entertaining way, and using astonishing scientific knowledge, shows us. --Kronen Zeitung Ziege has an engaging style, and, for a book dealing with difficult concepts, Nature Is Never Silent makes for a pleasurable read ... The author includes some of her own charming black and white illustrations -- some people are just too talented! I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who has listened to birds in the bush, and wondered what the sounds mean. --Penelope Cottier, The Canberra Times
