The power of trees : how ancient forests can save us if we let them

Wohlleben, Peter 1964- (author.). Billinghurst, Jane, 1958- (translator.).

Summary: "Trees can survive without humans, but we can't live without trees. This is forester Peter Wohlleben's follow-up to "The Hidden Life of Trees," that is as fascinating and eye-opening as it is trenchant in its critique: on the one hand, Wohlleben describes astonishing discoveries about how trees pass knowledge down to succeeding generations; on the other, he is unsparing in his criticism of those who wield economic and political power. This is a love letter to the forest and a passionate argument for protecting nature's boundless diversity, not only for the trees, but also for ourselves."--Provided by the publisher.
