Dette er historien om hvordan psykologen kurerte sin egen kjærlighetssorg ved å bli en utesovende friluftselsker med hang til kaffebål og mosegrodde skoger.

Vi følger Johanne Refseth fra friluftslivets spede begynnelse i Nordmarka til langturer på Norges vidder, mens hun forteller om psykologien bak det å være menneske. Om hvorfor følelser blir til magesmerter, indre uro, hodepine og konsentrasjonsproblemer. Og om hvordan vi deretter begynner å unngå de indre signalene ved å kritisere oss selv, utsette ting, ikke tørre å være lykkelige eller skrolle oss vekk fra følelsene.

Via furubål, soloppganger og nyfisket ørret viser Refseth hvordan du kan bli kvitt fysiske problemer ved å bli kjent med følelsene dine, og hvordan du får bukt med destruktive tankemønster og ødeleggende vaner og blir et helt menneske igjen.

Du og jeg er innvevd i naturens flettverk, mye tettere enn du tror. Millioner av arter gir oss mat, medisin og et levelig miljø, i tillegg til at naturen gir oss kunnskap og glede.

På engasjerende vis forteller Anne Sverdrup-Thygeson spennende og tankevekkende fortellinger om naturen. Forfatteren tar oss med ut i regnskogen, der orkidebiene lager parfyme og pollinerer nøttene du spiser i jula. Inn i den svale skyggen under bygatenes store trær, de som gjør at vi trenger mindre luftkjøling. Ned i skyttergravene der soldatene brukte selvlysende sopp som lykt i måneløse netter. Vi får lese om trær i gammelskogen som gir oss kreftmedisin og isfuglen som inspirerte konstruksjonen av lyntog. Men også om hvordan vår framferd kan sette alt dette i fare. For i vår evne til å utnytte naturen, ligger også risikoen for å undergrave vårt eget livsgrunnlag. Vi snakker i dag om en naturkrise, der arter trues og levesteder forsvinner - en krise like akutt og alvorlig som klimakrisen. Skal vi sikre vår egen framtid, må vi endre måten vi lever på. Vi må lære oss å spille på lag med naturen.

Er planter bedre problemløsere enn mennesker? Stefano Mancuso mener det, og i Planterevolusjonen gir han en overbevisende vitenskapelig begrunnelse.

Planter utgjør 80 prosent av alt levende på jorden, og likevel er det så lett å glemme at disse små, unnselige organismene ikke bare er ansvarlig for livsviktig oksygen, men også for mye vi tar for gitt i vårt moderne liv: medisin, mat og fossilt brennstoff.

Stefano Mancuso, en av verdens ledende forskere på plantenes nevrobiologi, viser i denne boken plantenes overraskende evne til innovasjon, til å huske og å lære, og dermed vise oss kreative løsninger på de mest presserende teknologiske og økologiske problemer vi står overfor i dag. Til tross for at planter verken har hjerne eller et sentralnervesystem, «leser» de i enda større grad enn dyr sine omgivelser. De utforsker effektivt og reagerer raskt på mulige ytre farer, og takket være deres desentraliserte kommandolinjer er de i stand til å huske tidligere farlige situasjoner og tilpasse seg nye omstendigheter.

Explore the world's natural habitats and the plants and animals that live there. From the depths of the ocean to soaring mountain peaks - via coral reefs, deserts, rainforests, and even cityscapes - discover how unexpected wildlife partnerships make up the habitats plants and animals call home. Each habitat section starts with a fascinating illustration to explain how it works, exploring the combination of conditions, plants, and animals that make it up.

It then delves deeper, telling stories about how the inhabitants interact and find their place in each habitat. Survival strategies can be extreme, including frogs that can survive frozen through winter to emerge unharmed in spring. Vying for resources, plants and animals can work together in intimate partnerships, engage in direct competition - fighting tooth and nail over resources - or adapt in particular ways to find their own niche that only they can exploit.

These intricately balanced systems create an incredible and fascinating variety of life on our planet. So what are you waiting for?
