To what extent are we still connected to nature? Peter Wohlleben is convinced that the bond between humans and nature is still strong and intact today, even if we are not always aware of it. Our blood pressure normalizes when we are surrounded by trees, the color green calms us, the forest sharpens our senses, it teaches us to smell, hear, feel and see. Conversely, plants also react positively to human touch.
Using the latest scientific findings and his own decades of observation, Peter Wohlleben opens our eyes to the hidden interplay between man and nature. He takes us into a wonderful cosmos in which man does not appear as a superior being, but as a part of nature like every plant and every animal. And he makes us aware that it is in our own best interest to preserve this valuable resource. Following his successful book The Secret Life of Trees, forester and author Peter Wohlleben, born in Bonn in 1964, is more active than ever.
