Overview

Far from being static, solitary organisms, trees are more deeply connected to each other and their surroundings than we realised. Drawing on the latest, groundbreaking scientific research, Peter Wohlleben reveals how parent trees care for their saplings and support them as they grow, share nutrients with other trees that are sick or dying, and even share information about environmental dangers to they can create their own ecosystem to counteract extremes of heat and cold. As a result, communities of trees can protect each other and live to a great age, while solitary trees often die young. As well as examining the latest scientific research, Wohlleben also looks at the importance of eco-friendly practices, arguing that by protecting the planet, we are also protecting our own physical and mental health.
