Trees R Us
Excellent book, from the start you feel that you are in the company of a forestry expert taking you gently on an in depth tour of his natural habitat.
Your understanding of what a tree is flips and you begin to see the world as a living organism of many fascinating inter related parts.
Every statement he makes is backed up with observations and relevant research proving his point and clarifying each.
The chapters each cover the essential facts and take you on the next step in comprehending how a forest communicates, helps and nurtures each member tree, like a human family.
Brilliant to discover that what you feel in a forest is the work of the trees and that they have feelings too.
This book has opened my eyes well worth a rereadRead full review...

Just lovely altogether
Great book, written more for people who don't know much about trees and who want to change that. As a long time tree/plant friend it still had new information well worth having. What he writes about only confirms what I perceived already through my senses but it is nice to have it in words especially for those who are starting to open up to the reality that life is conscious in all its forms. Lovely book. Quick chapters easily digested, and still interesting enough to come back to again for a light and thoughful read on a chilly winters afternoonRead full review...

This book has changed the way I look at the world....
Very easy to read, with fascinating insights about the social life of forests and the effects of human impact on the natural world, backed up by scientific research (in the background, so it is not dry reading).
Very relevant now, as climate change and de-forestation is starting to effect us all....Read full review...

Things will never be the same again!
Great book, it adds to the way you will look at not just trees but the wider landscape and how important biodiversity really is. As a species humans need to realise we are only part of what makes the planet work. Enjoy.Read full review...
