[The] Mysteries of Nature trilogy-- The Hidden Life of Trees , The Inner Life of Animals , and his latest...taps into a very human instinct: pattern recognition., Peter Wohlleben's curiosity about the natural world, his sense of wonder at its complexity and beauty, and his clear and compelling writing have combined in this book, The Secret Wisdom of Nature . As you read these pages you will understand why I so admire him and am so in love with his work., Wohlleben presents scientific evidence with the exuberant wonder of your favorite high school teacher., Wohlleben is right to ask what we actually mean by nature: the visual and ecological beauty of a few special places or the underlying system which makes the planet habitable. Humans, he thinks, can't live in one place and store nature elsewhere, and of course he's right., By the end of the book, it's clear that it's we humans who are extraordinary, in ways awful and awesome., Narrator Sean Barrett's warm baritone is perfect...Barrett's positively seductive voice will cause you to forget the bread crumbs as you follow him oh-so-willingly into the woods. His clear enunciation enables you not to miss anything, and his pacing allows time for you to say, 'Oh whoa!' To quote Wohlleben, 'Let's be amazed together.' Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award., Wohlleben's curiosity about the natural world, his sense of wonder at its complexity and beauty, and his clear and compelling writing have combined in this book., An absorbing and constantly surprising look at the unexpected connections that make the world work., Fruitful reading for students of the environment and of environmental literature, of which this is a fine specimen indeed., With scientific accuracy and easy-to-understand language, Peter Wohlleben shows us the secret, sacred relationships among living beings on this miraculous planet., With an eye for the memorable anecdote...Wohlleben writes with authority but avoids the temptation of appearing to have all the answers., Wohlleben uses the latest scientific discoveries and his own decades of experience as a forester to present some fascinating revelations.

Synopsis
The final book in the Mysteries of Nature trilogy by the New York Times bestselling author of The Hidden Life of Trees , Peter Wohlleben Nature is full of surprises-deciduous trees affect the rotation of the Earth, cranes sabotage the production of Iberian ham, and coniferous forests can make it rain-but what are the processes that drive these incredible phenomena? And why do they matter? In The Secret Wisdom of Nature , master storyteller and international sensation Peter Wohlleben takes listeners on a thought-provoking exploration of the vast natural systems that make life on Earth possible. In this tour of an almost unfathomable world, Wohlleben describes the fascinating interplay between animals and plants and answers such questions as, How do they influence each other? Do lifeforms communicate across species boundaries? and What happens when this finely tuned system gets out of sync? By introducing us to the latest scientific discoveries and recounting his own insights from decades of observing nature, one of the world's most famous foresters shows us how to recapture our sense of awe so we can see the world around us with completely new eyes., The final book in the Mysteries of Nature trilogy by the New York Times bestselling author of The Hidden Life of Trees, Peter Wohlleben Nature is full of surprises--deciduous trees affect the rotation of the Earth, cranes sabotage the production of Iberian ham, and coniferous forests can make it rain--but what are the processes that drive these incredible phenomena?
