Based on pioneering research, plant life is not different from human family structure, as German forest scientist Peter Wohlleben has shown in his book The Hidden Life of Trees.

He even tackles the question of whether trees are intelligent. The book includes a note from forest scientist Suzanne Simard of the University of British Columbia, whose studies showed that entire forests can be connected by “using chemical signals sent through the fungal networks around their root tips” and led to the term “the wood-wide web.” Wohlleben anthropomorphizes his subject, using such terms as friendship and parenting, which serves to make the technical information relatable, and he backs up his ideas with information from scientists.
