Sinopse

Trees Talk Underground explores the fascinating world beneath our feet, revealing how trees communicate and share resources through intricate fungal networks known as mycorrhizal networks. This book unveils the hidden connections within forests, demonstrating how these networks facilitate nutrient cycling and even defense mechanisms. Imagine a vast, underground internet connecting trees, enabling them to warn each other of danger or share vital resources.

 
Understanding these networks is crucial because they play a pivotal role in forest health, influencing biodiversity and resilience against diseases. The book progresses systematically, starting with the basics of mycorrhizae and their various types, then delving into their functions, such as nutrient transfer and defense.

 
Drawing from ecological field studies and advanced techniques like DNA sequencing, the book presents compelling evidence of tree interconnectedness. It highlights how forests function not as individual trees but as cooperative systems, challenging traditional views. The book emphasizes the importance of maintaining the integrity of these underground networks for effective forest management and conservation.

Tenacious Beasts - Wildlife...

Christopher J. Preston

The news about wildlife is dire—more than 900 species have been wiped off the planet since industrialization. Against this bleak backdrop, however, there are also glimmers of hope and crucial lessons to be learned from animals that have defied global trends toward extinction: bears in Italy, bison in North America, whales in the Atlantic. These populations are back from the brink, some of them in numbers unimaginable in a century. How has this happened? What shifts in thinking did it demand? In crisp, transporting prose, Christopher Preston reveals the mysteries and challenges at the heart of these resurgences. 
 
 
 
Drawing on compelling personal stories from the researchers, Indigenous people, and activists who know the creatures best, Preston weaves together a gripping narrative of how some species are taking back vital, ecological roles. Each section of the book offers a philosophical shift in how humans ought to think about animals, passionately advocating for the changes in attitude necessary for wildlife recovery. 
 
 
 
Tenacious Beasts is quintessential nature writing for the Anthropocene, touching on different facets of ecological restoration from Indigenous knowledge to rewilding practices. More important, perhaps, the book offers a road map—and a measure of hope—for a future in which humans and animals can once again coexist.
