Synopsis:
Plants - nice but boring? This book will change your mind! Open it and see how they talk without tongue, listen without ears, see without eyes, breathe without lungs, and behave intelligently without brain. Recent scientific findings will make you treat the plants with respect and admiration.
Do plants have superpowers we have overlooked? Recent scientific findings have shaken our traditional view of plants. Now we know that plants not only take an interest in the world around them, but they react to it, too. Explore with us the depths of the plant soul, and learn how plants converse, help one another, fight together, what they remember, and how plant mail works.
