Combining scientific discoveries with decades of forestry expertise, this bestselling book explores how animals, plants, and natural forces cooperate to maintain ecological balance. Highly rated and widely acclaimed, it’s a must-read for anyone passionate about understanding and protecting the environment. ## Description An exploration of the invisible connections sustaining the entire natural world from the bestselling author of The Hidden Life of Trees Did you know that trees can influence the rotation of the earth? Or that wolves can alter the course of a river? Or that earthworms control wild boar populations? The natural world is a web of intricate connections, many of which go unnoticed by humans. But it is these connections that maintain nature’s finely balanced equilibrium. Drawing on the latest scientific discoveries and decades of experience as a forester, Peter Wohlleben shows us how different animals, plants, rivers, rocks and weather systems cooperate, and what's at stake when these delicate systems are unbalanced. ‘Peter Wohlleben doesn't merely look, he sees. Let's all learn as much from him as we can, and quickly’ Rosamund Young, author of The Secret Life of Cows Review: Buy the bloody book and learn - Everything thing you need to know Review: Surprisingly good book! - We're using this book as a study in our outdoor Green Team parish meetings through the summer (2024). It is a surprisingly good book -- not a difficult read, but incredibly thought-provoking. Example: when man got rid of the wolves in Yellowstone, there was nothing to cull the deer, so the deer and elk population exploded. They grazed away the vegetation, which in turn took food away from the beavers so they went elsewhere and let their dams fall into disrepair. The dams falling into disrepair resulted in much less water flow through the creeks and rivers in the Yellowstone area, which led to a decrease in precipitation. When the wolves were re-introduced, the deer and elk populations went down, the vegetation began reappearing, the beavers had food and suitable trees to make dams, and the precipitation increased. Here's another: aphids suck the leaves on trees, which causes the trees to release sap. This, in turn, causes certain ants to gather around the base of the trees. The ants don't want the aphids to go away, so they bite the wings off the aphids. The aphids become more or less the "slaves" of the ants; but the tree will allow a fungus to grow to capture the sugar and return it to the roots of the trees. Every chapter is like this. It's the most interesting book study we've done in YEARS. I really, strongly recommend this book! ## Features - Item Trademark: VINTAGE - manufacturer: Vintage - Item Weight: grams, pounds, 0.41887829780, 190. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #24,459 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #25 in Plant Ecology #31 in Zoology #35 in Botany & Plants | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 686 Reviews | ## Images ![The Secret Network of Nature: The Delicate Balance of All Living Things - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91N+jpK6FEL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy the bloody book and learn *by M***D on 9 April 2021* Everything thing you need to know ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly good book! *by M***R on 10 July 2024* We're using this book as a study in our outdoor Green Team parish meetings through the summer (2024).

È affascinante e, delle volte, scioccante come la modifica della vegetazione o ancora di più la modifica di una certa specie di animale possa avere degli effetti enorme su un'intera ecosistema. Chi avrebbe mai immaginato che l'introduzione di certe specie animali potrebbe addirittura cambiare la corsa di un fiume? Una vera avventura di scoperte inattese. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/255720095-the-secret-network-of-nature-the-delicate-balance-of-all](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/255720095-the-secret-network-of-nature-the-delicate-balance-of-all) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
