When I ask myself how a person should live, this is the advice I now turn to: Learn to branch out like a tree, to let go like a tree, to weather hardship like a tree, to rise above like a tree, to set down roots like a tree. In a scarred and storm-battered world, we couldn't hope to find wiser teachers. One day, on a whim, Robert Moor set out to climb a tree near his home, unwittingly embarking on what would become a decade-long, globe-spanning adventure in trees. In Trees is a wondrous, curious journey through the wilds of nature and the gnarls of history, exploring how trees-from the mightiest sequoia to the tiniest bonsai-can teach us to grow wise. From Darwin to Attenborough, Brecht to Wordsworth, cutting-edge scientists and Zen monks and Bonsai artists, In Trees explores the fundamental and meaningful role of trees in the natural world. From Ethiopia and Papua to the Sierra Nevada mountains and the Lake District, join award-winning, bestselling author Robert Moor to uncover the hidden art of "tree-thinking", a powerful tool to break open humanities oldest questions: what is the secret to growing old well? How do we set down deeper roots in an increasingly chaotic world? And most importantly, how should we-as individuals, as communities, as stewards of the earth-live? Weaving together history, ecology, philosophy, neuroscience, mythology, literature, and the human-like qualities of identity, belonging and memory, In Trees shares extraordinary stories of how trees have become embedded in our culture, lifestyle and imagination for centuries, becoming the key to almost everything in the universe. What began as an ode to the miracle of trees blossoms into a joyous, daring, fiercely hopeful endeavour that reveals... To truly grasp the wisdom of a tree, you need to begin thinking like one.

Naturalistic Flowers

An internationally celebrated poet and critic brings Jagadish Chandra Bose’s revolutionary writings on plant sentience and communication to English readers for the first time &nbsp; Jagadish Chandra Bose (1858–1937) was a Bengali scientist and polymath who developed a theory of plant communication more than a century before Western scientists began to explore such ideas. Bose suggested that plants had their own vocabulary, an “unvoiced life” that he recorded as a “script” with a crescograph and other devices he invented to measure how plants respond to each other and their environments. &nbsp; Inviting readers into the “resounding silence of the green plant kingdom,” he described an underlying unity beneath the multiplicity of phenomena, and a world in which “endless music is sung everywhere.” Dismissed as idiosyncratic and unscientific when he was alive, Bose provocatively challenged the hierarchy of living beings, which relegated plants to the bottom, and created a mesmerizing body of work on nonhuman intelligence whose originality and significance we at last are able to appreciate today. &nbsp; Through her lyrical translations and selections from Bose’s essay collection Abyakta (The Unsaid; 1922), Sumana Roy reveals the revolutionary character of his mind, as poetic and philosophical as it was scientific. Roy, the author of How I Became a Tree, shows how Bose’s work can shape how we understand ourselves as a species living alongside and inside the plant world.
