Editorial Reviews
Review
"Brings the poster-species of Halloween out of the shadows, so we can better appreciate the flying mammal."
―National Geographic Traveller
"Endearing photos of bats show clever adaptations like long tongues...In his book The Genius Bat, ecologist Yossi Yovel explains why these mammals are a vital part of ecosystems, pollinating plants and keeping insect populations in check."
―New Scientist
"In this dynamic and informative account of the genius of bats, Yovel’s passion for and knowledge of the topic are inspiring and evident throughout."
―Booklist
"Yovel’s enthusiasm for these little creatures is infectious."
―Library Journal
"Yovel's passion and curiosity will leave readers with a greater appreciation for the wonders and mysteries of the bat world. This is a revelation."
―Publisher's Weekly (starred)
“A marvelous book. If you are at all curious about bats and the scientists who study them, this is the book for you.”
―Nancy Simmons, Curator of Mammalogy, American Museum of Natural History
"You will never think of bats (or zoologists) in the same way. The book is a masterpiece of story-
telling.”
―Ron Milo, Weizmann Institute, author of Biology by the Numbers
“In this excellent book, Yovel draws you into the lives of bats. He provides many astonishing details of what bats do and why.”
―Brock Fenton, Emeritus Professor, Western University, Ontario, author of A Miscellany of Bats
"Follows the secret lives of these flying creatures, and not least the crazy people who study them. Full of knowledge and amazing details, and written almost like a thriller; the enthusiasm is evident in every sentence." ―Udi Ben Saadia, Walla News
"A love story for the only mammal endowed with the ability to fly. The book is fascinating throughout, and it combines stories of exotic journeys to distant islands that resonate like adventures from world literature."
―The Bernstein Literature Prize Committee
"Fascinating...Yovel clearly explains bats' vital contributions to a healthier planet... and provides an insider view of what motivates scientists to study bats."
―Merlin Tuttle, Department of Integrative Biology, University of Texas at Austin
"Accessible, engaging, and inspiring."
―Winifred Frick, Chief Scientist, Bat Conservation International
