Von der weltweit führenden ForstwissenschaftlerinDie Forstwissenschaftlerin Suzanne Simard nimmt uns mit in ihre Welt, ins Zentrum des Waldes, und zeigt, dass Bäume viel mehr sind als bloße Rohstofflieferanten: Lebendige Wesen mit hochspezialisierten Aufgaben, die soziale Strukturen bilden und über ein Geflecht aus unterirdischen Netzwerken miteinander kommunizieren. Sie lernen, passen ihr Verhalten an die Bedingungen ihrer Umwelt an, erkennen Nachbarn, haben Erinnerungen und sogar einen Sinn für Zukunft. Sie konkurrieren miteinander und unterstützen sich gegenseitig auf erstaunlich hochentwickelte Weise – Eigenschaften, die normalerweise menschlichen Gesellschaften zugeschrieben werden. Im Zentrum von Simards Forschungen stehen die »Mutterbäume«: alte, mächtige und geheimnisvolle Bäume, welche die anderen um sie herum versorgen, verbinden und beschützen.Während sie ihre wissenschaftliche Suche nachzeichnet, die zu ihrer bahnbrechenden Entdeckung des »Wood Wide Web« führte, erzählt Suzanne Simard auch von ihrer eigenen Reise. Von ihrer Kindheit in den Wäldern von British Columbia, von Liebe und Verlust, von Beobachtung und Veränderung und von der zutiefst menschlichen Eigenschaft, verstehen zu wollen, wer wir wirklich sind und welchen Platz wir in der Welt einnehmen. So verstehen wir letztlich nicht nur, was eine der spannendsten Wissenschaftlerinnen der Gegenwart antreibt, sondern auch, dass uns mehr mit den Wäldern dieser Welt verbindet, als wir denken. Denn um zu überleben, sind wir aufeinander angewiesen.

Since Latin became the standard language for plant naming in the eighteenth century, it has been intrinsically linked with botany. And while mastery of the classical language may not be a prerequisite for tending perennials, all gardeners stand to benefit from learning a bit of Latin and its conventions in the field. Without it, they might buy a Hellebores foetidus and be unprepared for its fetid smell, or a Potentilla reptans with the expectation that it will stand straight as a sentinel rather than creep along the ground.An essential addition to the gardener’s library, this colorful, fully illustrated book details the history of naming plants, provides an overview of Latin naming conventions, and offers guidelines for pronunciation. Readers will learn to identify Latin terms that indicate the provenance of a given plant and provide clues to its color, shape, fragrance, taste, behavior, functions, and more.Full of expert instruction and practical guidance, Latin for Gardeners will allow novices and green thumbs alike to better appreciate the seemingly esoteric names behind the plants they work with, and to expertly converse with fellow enthusiasts. Soon they will realize that having a basic understanding of Latin before trips to the nursery or botanic garden is like possessing some knowledge of French before traveling to Paris; it enriches the whole experience.
