In The Hidden Life of Trees\, Pet er Wohlleben shares his deep love of woods and forests and explains the am azing processes of life\, death\, and regeneration he has observed in the woodland and the amazing scientific processes behind the wonders of which we are blissfully unaware. Much like human families\, tree parents live to gether with their children\, communicate with them\, and support them as t hey grow\, sharing nutrients with those who are sick or struggling and cre ating an ecosystem that mitigates the impact of extremes of heat and cold for the whole group. As a result of such interactions\, trees in a family or community are protected and can live to be very old. In contrast\, soli tary trees\, like street kids\, have a tough time of it and in most cases die much earlier than those in a group. \;
 \;
Drawing o n groundbreaking new discoveries\, Wohlleben presents the science behind t he secret and previously unknown life of trees and their communication abi lities\; he describes how these discoveries have informed his own practice s in the forest around him. As he says\, a happy forest is a healthy fores t\, and he believes that eco-friendly practices not only are economically sustainable but also benefit the health of our planet and the mental and p hysical health of all who live on Earth. \;
