The Book:An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us(2022) by Ed Yong
Description from the publisher: “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 but a tiny sliver of an immense world. This book welcomes us into a previously unfathomable dimension—the world as it is truly perceived by other animals.
InAn Immense World, author and acclaimed science journalist Ed Yong coaxes us beyond the confines of our own senses, allowing us to perceive the skeins of scent, waves of electromagnetism, and pulses of pressure that surround us. Because in order to understand our world, we don’t need to travel to other places; we need to see through other eyes.”
An Immense Worldis the OFNC Book Club Pick for November and December. It will be the focus of the book club’s meeting on Tuesday, January 13, 2026.
