Summary
Wohlleben takes readers on a thought-provoking exploration of the vast natural systems that make life on Earth possible. The author describes the interplay between animals and plants and answers such questions as: How do they influence each other? Do lifeforms communicate across species boundaries? And what happens when this finely tuned system gets out of sync? By introducing us to the latest scientific discoveries and recounting his own insights from decades of observing nature, Wohlleben shows us how to recapture our sense of awe so we can see the world around us with completely new eyes. --From publisher description
