In the land of trees - Edrevia, hundreds of trees live and unite in clans. Among them are the wise Chroniclers, who are serious and conscientious, keeping thousands of different stories, and no one knows more than they do. There are tall and formidable Gurrys, tireless Strongbacks. Photosynthesis and information transmission, extracting nutrients from the atmosphere and soil – all of this the inhabitants of Edrevia have been doing for hundreds of years. They persistently build this world day by day, while we, humans, allow or at least do not interfere with them doing so. No one will tell you this story - captivating and thousands of years old - better than Stefano Mancuso, the Italian neurobiologist and author of the bestseller "What Plants Think About".
