Summary of Jackie Higgins's Sentient

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The peacock mantis shrimp is a colorful creature that has developed a reputation for being aggressive. In 1998, one of these shrimp broke through the glass wall of his aquarium in Great Yarmouth, England. #2 The most powerful punch in the animal kingdom is courtesy of the peacock mantis shrimp, which can deliver a blow that spells doom for aquarium walls and any snails unfortunate enough to be within reach. Their eyes are more powerful than their right hook. #3 Marshall’s fascination with Tyson and his brotherhood began some thirty-five years ago, when he was beginning a PhD with Mike Land at the University of Sussex in England. He had been scouting around for a subject when the decision was made for him by the visit of a foreign dignitary. #4 The eyesight of the peacock mantis shrimp is formidable. They can see four different colors that humans can’t, and they use this to see in ultraviolet light.
