牛津植物學家的野帳:從IKEA到火山口,一趟勇往「植」前的全球採集之旅: : IKEA 2022 Chris Thorogood Taiwania

作者: 克里斯‧索羅古德  |  譯者: 韓絜光


       
—前往世界不同的角落,追尋命定的植物戀人—

遍及全球七大區域╳近五十幅彩色植物科學繪圖
最刺激、最藝術,也最動人的一趟植物冒險之旅

「這是送給全世界『老派』植物學者與植物愛好者的禮物。」
——國立臺灣大學地理環境資源學系副教授洪廣冀

  穿越雨林沼澤沙漠、因山崩滾下懸崖、驚險躲過火山爆發與颱風亂流——這不是在拍好萊塢電影,而是本書作者索羅古德的植物學家日常,搭配栩栩如生的手繪植物,構成我們將在本書經歷的冒險。

  在IKEA停車場外發現的一株寄生植物「列當」,是索羅古德走上植物學家之路的起點,本次旅程也將從這裡出發。索羅古德將會帶領我們,徒手爬上英國與愛爾蘭的濱海絕壁,在崖頂和列當共享落日餘暉;走進南非多肉植物生態區,一睹你絕不會認為長得像植物的鞭寄生;開車擠過地中海小島的窄巷,顫抖著四肢爬下山谷,沐浴在一整片「龍的氣息」;勇闖中東沙漠河谷,走過荷槍實彈的邊境,尋找未被定名的肉蓯蓉,也許它是全球土地退化問題的解答;航向加納利群島,在島上田野間的空地,和當地居民一起種下島上特有種「卡登」;從北海道到琉球,橫跨整個日本,走遍高山、雨林、沼澤、火山,蒐集罕見植物標本,但也別忘了一訪水橋橋祭、和居酒屋老闆娘乾杯。

  走過千山萬水後,我們抵達生長在婆羅洲雨林深處的凱氏大王花——索羅古德自年少時就無數次幻想能一親芳澤的夢中之花,那裡既是終點,也是一切的起點:原來他的每一次出發,都是為了回家、然後再出發——而他仍是當年那個熱愛植物的少年。

  本書沒有生硬的植物學知識,只有作者索羅古德為了植物多次命懸一線的刺激冒險、逼真到簡直躍然紙上的精巧插圖、細膩多情又富有想像力的生動文字,以及最重要的——對植物純粹、濃烈、生生不息的愛。這本書獻給所有植物愛好者、獻給所有和索羅古德一樣,會對著生物納悶「為什麼」的少年少女,也獻給有著其他愛好的你——你將能從本書,看見那個全心喜愛某樣事物的、閃閃發亮的自己。

本書特色

  驚險刺激的全球採集之旅:英國、愛爾蘭、南非、地中海、中東、加納利群島、日本、婆羅洲;峭壁、高山、雨林、沙漠、沼澤、火山……不管在哪個國家地區、也不管地形天氣多麼險惡,只要那裡長著稀有植物,那裡就是索羅古德旅程的下一站!

  栩栩如生的全彩植物科學繪圖:列當、蜂蘭、天南星、豬籠草、肉蓯蓉……近五十幅全彩植物科學繪圖,全都來自索羅古德筆下,把大洋彼岸的各色花草帶到你的眼前——沒錯,這真的不是照片!

  細膩生動的文筆:不只是植物學家、藝術家,索羅古德更是個出色的寫作者:植物的千姿百態、旅途中的所見所感、各地不同的風土民情……通通信手拈來,給你最沉浸式的冒險體驗。

  對所愛之物不顧一切的追求:你有發自內心熱愛的事物嗎?如果有的話,「你不可能全身滿溢電流,卻什麼都不做,是吧?那樣你會爆炸的。」所以出發吧!不管是想去追尋或釐清自己所愛,相信這本書都能帶給你勇氣。

A very good study book
Format: Paperback
A very good study book for NCLEX. It is to the point making it easy to understand. I used it in addition to Mark K notes and audio and passed my NCLEX in the first try, and i did only minimum questions. I never used anything else to study.

Great book!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I am still in nursing school- but I like to try read and gain knowledge ahead of time. I do this so that with upcoming semesters, the concepts are not completely foreign to me and I’m not blindsided by new topics. I have been following a lot of the YouTube videos with Mark and Dr. Sharon and have found them very educational even while in nursing school. I purchased this book and I really am happy with it. I was hoping it would have offer more info in it , maybe some more facts here and there but it’s basically an answer bank. It does have some small facts but they are not in depth at all- just mainly recall information. It really is based off just past memory from your education. For me personally, I find this book pretty useful to have if you feel confident in all topics- and plan to go for your NCLEX..however, if you’re still a bit rusty on some topics, you won’t really be able to rely solely on this book to brush up on information- not in a manner of depth (which I guess is the point). I think applying his lectures, listening to their YouTube videos and applying this book would make the ultimate go-to. The book alone is wonderful- but it’s simply just answer banks to help recall the info. Which is great if you’re looking for strictly recall. I was fortunate enough to find his lectures on Reddit along with some of the “yellow pages” from other students. I can apply that with this book and be confident in upcoming tests , as his lectures are incredible.
