The Magical World of Trees

Delve deep inside the mystical world of trees, explore how they breathe, think and communicate. Beneath the earth there's brain activity among the roots as they search for nutrients and share their bounty with young and old. Forests mimic much what we desire, to live, propagate and provide for others.

The book explores the effect of mass urbanization, the changing climate and how our forests are fighting back. They are immortal with untold secrets much like their creator, they own their own dimension of time, but we are beginning to learn their language.

Researchers from all over the world are bringing forth evidence in the symbiotic relationship between nature and humans. Yes, trees do talk to us, but a silent accord that brings peace and tranquility. Discover the healing power of nature, proof in both science and personal anecdotes; just a walk through a park lowers stress and boosts mental health. The frontal lobes of the brain relax and the scent of pine trees strengthens the immune system.

A book on trees wouldn't be complete without words of wisdom from environmental legends of Henry David Thoreau, John Muir and Ansel Adams. Follow their quest to save these immortal lands.

There is a thin line between reality and fantasy as creatives share their own version of saving the forests. From blockbuster books to film and television adaptations, scenes of The Narnia Chronicles, Lord of the Rings and the Game of Thrones bring to life the mystical magic of trees. And to top things off, a fairy tale comes true with the discovery of a buried treasure, an ancient forest at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico.

And what better way to close this magical journey than a chapter on the great forests of the world. From America's towering sequoia and redwood forests to the European rainforests filled with vast numbers of medicinal cures.
