The more we learn about fungi, the less makes sense without them. They can change our minds, heal our bodies and even help us avoid environmental disaster; they are metabolic masters, earth-makers and key players in most of nature's processes. In Entangled Life, Merlin Sheldrake takes us on a mind-altering journey into their spectacular world, and reveals how these extraordinary organisms transform our understanding of our planet and life itself.
I knew mushrooms are fascinating, but this book managed to fill me with awe. Sheldrake beautifully describes how fundamental these overlooked beings are for all life on the planet. If you have any passing interest for biology, ecology, plants or fungi, this is a must read.
It was really enlightening to learn about the incredible impact that fungus has on all parts of the world.
I was especially intrigued at how plant roots and mycelium work together. It was also very surprising to hear about the impressive effects that truffles have on humans. I hadn't known that they had such an effect on people.
Fascinating topic, and the book started off well, but for me it kind of fell apart and started getting repetitive.
