Kuşların Felsefesi by Philippe J. Dubois, Élise Rousseau
Birds, the wise masters of life, have much to tell us with their naturalness and lightness. We just need to listen to them.
French ornithologist Philippe J. Dubois, who spent his life observing birds, and philosopher Élise Rousseau, invite us – us who consider ourselves "masters of the world" at the pinnacle of evolution! – to reflect on ourselves first, and then to spread our wings, with twenty-two small life lessons inspired by the lives of birds.
While reading The Philosophy of Birds, translated into 15 languages, you will discover why the robin is braver than the eagle, what the northern tern can teach us about "setting out on a journey," and whether the best way to love is through the mind or the heart, as the mallard and the penguin will show.
This is a book that allows us to hear the rhythm of nature and gives us a fresh perspective on how we can live life. “Exquisite, magical, striking. I can no longer see birds the way I used to.”
—Peter Wohlleben, author of The Secret Life of Trees
