In \u003ci\u003eThe Hidden Life of Trees\u003c\/i\u003e forester and author Peter Wohlleben convincingly makes the case that, yes, the forest is a social network. He draws on groundbreaking scientific discoveries to describe how trees are like human families: tree parents live together with their children, communicate with them, support them as they grow, share nutrients with those who are sick or struggling, and even warn each other of impending dangers. Wohlleben also shares his deep love of woods and forests, explaining the amazing processes of life, death, and regeneration that he has observed in his woodland.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003eIncludes a Note From a Forest Scientist by Dr.Suzanne Simard\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003eReviews:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\"Warmly avuncular, storybook simple, and heavily dusted with the glitter of wonderment.\" \u003cb\u003e-- \u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\"The matter-of-fact Mr. Wohlleben has delighted readers and talk-show audiences alike with the news -- long known to biologists -- that trees in the forest are social beings.\" \u003cb\u003e-- Sally McGrane, \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\"This fascinating book will intrigue readers who love a walk through the woods.\" \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e-- \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Contributors:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cspan id=\"titleId\" data-title-id=\"43769044\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeter Wohlleben\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author of several books about the natural world, including \u003ca class=\"text-link\" href=\"https:\/\/burningbooks.com\/products\/the-heartbeat-of-trees-embracing-our-ancient-bond-with-forests-and-nature\" title=\"The Heartbeat of Trees\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Heartbeat of Trees\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003cem\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/burningbooks.com\/products\/the-hidden-life-of-trees-what-they-feel-how-they-communicate-discoveries-from-a-secret-world\" title=\"The Hidden Life of Trees\" class=\"text-link\"\u003eThe Hidden Life of Trees\u003c\/a\u003e , \u003ca class=\"text-link\" href=\"https:\/\/burningbooks.com\/products\/the-inner-life-of-animals-love-grief-and-compassion-surprising-observations-of-a-hidden-world\" title=\"The Inner Life of Animals\"\u003eThe Inner Life of Animals\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003ca title=\"The Secret Wisdom of Nature\" href=\"https:\/\/burningbooks.com\/products\/secret-wisdom-of-nature\" class=\"text-link\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Secret Wisdom of Nature\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.
