人类与鸟类在演化之路上走向不同的分支，我们习惯于以自身的尺度衡量智力，从而严重低估了其他物种的潜能。《鸟类的天赋》用一段寻找最强鸟脑的旅程，颠覆了人类对鸟的认知。本书从工具制造、沟通、鸣唱、审美、空间感和 时 间感、环境适应能力等方面展示了鸟类的智力奇迹，让我们重新认识了身边这些熟悉又陌生的精灵。珍妮弗·阿克曼以平易优雅的文笔记录自己在世界各地所做的鸟类调查，并介绍鸟类学的新近科研成果，使本书在趣味性和知识性之间保持了很好的平衡。
Birds are astonishingly intelligent creatures. According to revolutionary new research, some birds rival primates and even humans in their remarkable forms of intelligence. In The Genius of Birds, acclaimed author Jennifer Ackerman explores their newly discovered brilliance and how it came about.
As she travels around the world to the most cutting-edge frontiers of research, Ackerman not only tells the story of the recently uncovered genius of birds but also delves deeply into the latest findings about the bird brain itself that are shifting our view of what it means to be intelligent. At once personal yet scientific, richly informative and beautifully written, The Genius of Birds celebrates the triumphs of these surprising and fiercely intelligent creatures.
