Skeptics beware. Lots of psychobabble.

Very interesting, though a little heavy

The book was very interesting, sharing a vast amount of studies done on the unexpected characteristics, communication, and properties of plants. Not having looked into the book much prior to listening to it, I was surprised that there was so much on the realm of the esoteric. Definitely changes your perspective on plants!
The only drawback was that the person who recorded the audio for the book had a really hard time reading names, locations, and titles in foreign languages. These showed up quite a bit and it was distracting. It was otherwise great.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
