Peter Wohlleben’s “The Hidden Life of Trees” was a book that made a very deep and lasting impression upon the way I view forests. His “The Inner Life of Animals” gave me additional reasons to suspect that many of the ideas I’ve long held about animal cognition are indeed correct.
When I first read and subsequently reviewed Peter Wohlleben’s “The Hidden Life of Trees,” I was deeply impressed by how “Mr. Wohlleben […] connected the “prose” (the science) and the “passion” (the receptiveness of human beings to stories) for the exaltation of the idea that we – each of us as individual human beings – can understand more about trees and forests than we previously knew, or indeed perhaps even thought we could know.”
