An Immense World with Ed Yong

Every creature, humans included, are only really perceiving a very thin sliver of the fullness of reality. Sharon welcomes guest Ed Yong to share from his newest book, An Immense World, How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us. It’s a fascinating look at the rich sensory world of animals, and Ed speaks to Sharon about how exploring this world opens up big, philosophical questions about life. While our perceptions may be limited, we should continue to explore, and let our curiosity guide us in new directions
