This book allows readers to discover how different creatures perceive their surroundings, from bees, which see ultraviolet patterns invisible to humans, to nocturnal predators with vision capable of hunting in total darkness. \"Eyes\" is an informative work that combines science and illustration to explain how millions of years of evolution have adapted the eyes of each species to its ecosystem, revealing a visual diversity that far exceeds human capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book explores the diversity of the sense of sight in the animal kingdom, comparing it with human perception. Through twelve extraordinary animals from different parts of the world, the author explains how each species has developed eyes adapted to its survival needs: from the ability to see colors that humans cannot distinguish, such as the ultraviolet patterns on flowers perceived by bees, to the extremely sensitive night vision that allows for hunting in the dark. The work also addresses concepts such as visual field, sharpness, and the ability to detect imperceptible movements, showing how evolution has shaped specialized eyes to recognize dangers, capture prey, and survive in all types of ecosystems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDiversity of animal vision and adaptation to ecosystems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eComparison between human visual perception and that of other species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEvolution of eyes as a survival tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSpecial visual capabilities: night vision, ultraviolet, and wide field of vision\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between ocular anatomy and animal behavior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at children aged 6 and up with a scientific curiosity, as well as young people and adults interested in zoology, evolutionary biology, and naturalist outreach.
