Nine brains and three hearts – the bizarre world of squids
You don't have to search for aliens in space, they are already among us: they live their mysterious and largely unexplored existence in the depths of the oceans.
Science journalist Heinz Krimmer introduces us to the world of cephalopods – head-footed creatures – and takes us into the habitat of these bizarre beings. He describes their behaviour and ecology in an exciting and entertaining way and reveals astonishing facts, such as why consciousness researchers are interested in octopuses.
A wonderfully designed volume with spectacular images – as fascinating as an encounter with an octopus.
The author Heinz Krimmer studied journalism and politics, among other subjects, and has been working as a freelance journalist, photographer and filmmaker since 1984. After initial success as an author, the oceans and diving increasingly became the focus of his work.
