  • Details

SuperNature SPOTLIGHTS the wow factor in the natural world, taking you behind the scenes and 'under the skin' of animals to uncover the secrets of their behaviour and anatomy. 

Find out how a basilisk walks on water, why a tardigrade can live in outer space (without a space suit), and what happens when a Gaboon viper sinks its fangs into an unwary victim. SuperNature takes the most fascinating and surprising stories and explores them in remarkable visual detail. Every animal included is visualised in the clearest and most dramatic way possible, including incredibly detailed 3D models that utilise cross-sections and strip layers away to reveal every essential detail. A remarkable array of species is explored, from a giant baleen whale to a tiny barnacle, with the artworks showing their key anatomical features. 

Explaining their fascinating behaviour and how and why their bodies work the way they do, the text for every entry is inspiring, vivid, and based on the latest scientific knowledge. With its combination of stunning original images and its clear yet authoritative approach, SuperNature is unexpected and breathtaking–it is the ultimate visual guide to nature’s most incredible stories.
