Peter Wohlleben invites readers to discover a profound and scientific exploration of the deep connection between humans and forests. Drawing on cutting-edge research and his own experiences as a forester, he reveals how trees communicate, support one another, and even influence our well-being in measurable ways.

From the immune-boosting properties of forest air to the calming effects of woodland sounds, Wohlleben demonstrates that our relationship with trees goes far beyond the merely aesthetic. He argues that spending time amongst trees isn't just pleasant—it's essential for our physical and mental health. This accessible blend of natural history, environmental science, and personal reflection offers a compelling case for protecting forests and reconnecting with the natural world.
