Description

The Revolutionary Genius of Plants challenges our understanding of the natural world, revealing the surprising sophistication of plant intelligence and behavior. With stunning illustrations, Stefano Mancuso presents a compelling scientific case that plants are capable of innovation, memory, and learning.

From the air we breathe to the medicine we use, plants play a vital role in our lives. Yet, despite making up 80% of the weight of all living things on earth, they are often overlooked. Mancuso's groundbreaking work sheds light on the cooperative, shared systems that enable plants to perceive their surroundings with greater sensitivity than animals, and to adapt to new situations in remarkable ways.
