À propos de cette écoute
How do trees live? Do they feel pain or have awareness of their surroundings? Research is now suggesting trees are capable of much more than we have ever known.
In The Hidden Life of Trees, forester Peter Wohlleben puts groundbreaking scientific discoveries into a language everyone can relate to.
In The Hidden Life of Trees, Peter Wohlleben shares his deep love of woods and forests and explains the amazing 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 together with their children, communicate with them and support them as they grow, sharing nutrients with those who are sick or struggling and creating 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, solitary trees, like street kids, have a tough time of it and in most cases die much earlier than those in a group.
Drawing on groundbreaking new discoveries, Wohlleben presents the science behind the secret and previously unknown lives of trees and their communication abilities; he describes how these discoveries have informed his own practices in the forest around him. As he says, a happy forest is a healthy forest, and he believes that ecofriendly practices not only are economically sustainable but also benefit the health of our planet and the mental and physical health of all who live on Earth.
After a walk through the woods with Wohlleben, you'll never look at trees the same way again.

Charming and inspiring
Very cute book, I still don't know how much of it is true, how much just imagination of the author, but it's definitely a wonderful world of trees worth exploring.
Also a wake up call to actually protect those valuable ecosystem

Ca changé ma vie! A recommander
This book is a real gem and it has completely changed the way I view trees, and plants in general. I now regularly visit my local wood and get so much more out of each visit. My gardening practices have changed, and I appreciate much more the very important role trees play in the survival of us, and the planet. The narration is excellent and added to my enjoyment of this book, so much so I listened to it back to back three times. I've since sought out other books narrated by Mike Grady and have not been disappointed.

Half Convincing!
In this short work translated from German, a forester, Peter Wohlenben, presents the conclusions he draws from decades of taking care of a specific forest and of reading on the topic.
His thesis is that forests are communities and that trees are social beings that communicate with each another through their roots and by discharging chemicals in the air. He also claims among many other things that younger trees are actively supported by older ones as they slowly mature.
Though it is totally plausible that a forest is more than a collection of individuals, the vocabulary used by Peter Wohlenben is excessive, “mother trees” being described for instance as nurturing their young ones. Chances are that we are witnessing more of a symbiotic relationship rather than anything remotely conscious.
The data provided is oftentimes surprising for a North American reader, a forest reaching maturity over centuries, and not decades as we are accustomed.
Overall, this book should be praised for its originality but considered with caution.
