He shows that small changes in fundamental constants would preclude life, suggesting a carefully structured universe. Giberson argues that this evidence, even for those without religious faith, points toward a grand design capable of supporting life and inspiring the search for a creator.

Are trees social beings? Forester and author Peter Wohlleben makes the case that, yes, the forest is a social network. He draws on groundbreaking scientific discoveries to describe how trees are like human families: tree parents live together with their children, communicate with them, support them as they grow, share nutrients with those who are sick or struggling, and even warn each other of impending dangers. Wohlleben also shares his deep love of woods and forests, explaining the amazing processes of life, death, and regeneration he has observed in his woodland.
