Forests are more than simply a collection of trees. They are complex ecosystems made up of thousands of species, including animals, fungi and bacteria. And the best way to save trees and perhaps ensure a habitable future is to step aside and let forests - naturally better equipped than tree-planting schemes to face environmental challenges - heal themselves. At the heart of this book lies Wohlleben's passionate plea: that our survival is dependent on trusting ancient forests and allowing them to thrive.
