What Fish Keep Silent About: A Guide to the Life of Marine Creatures / Helen Scales; Translated from English — Moscow: Alpina Non-Fiction, 2020. — 396 p. — (Animals Series). ISBN 978-5-00223-231-4 Marine biologist Helen Scales' book is devoted to the most ordinary and mysterious, well-known and in some ways completely unfamiliar creatures — fish. Their fascinatingly interesting life occurs hidden from us, beneath the water's surface, in the ocean depths, and is therefore largely underestimated and misunderstood. Fish are far from the primitive creatures we imagined — they can count, use tools, understand the laws of physics, solve complex logical problems, possess social intelligence, and are capable of cooperation. Fish demonstrate behaviors previously thought to be characteristic only of humans and some primates with large brains. This fascinating, fact-rich book will undoubtedly inspire readers to get closer to these amazing creatures and make them think about how much smarter they are and how they live a far more complex and interesting life than commonly believed.
