THE HIDDEN COMPANY THAT TREES KEEP - JAMES B NA...

This book takes a deep dive into the complex and endlessly fascinating relationships between
trees and the many organisms that rely on them throughout their entire lifecyles. Some of these
stories will be familiar  but others  particularly at the micro-level  will be something of a
revelation. Nardi examines every part of the tree to show how the tiniest organisms use micro
spaces in leaf scales  twigs  or bark to thrive while larger organisms such as birds and
mammals exploit the individual tree's more visible resources and - in return - help seed
dispersal or other types of propagation. Nardi's immense knowledge is captured in fully
accessible text alongside his own copious and wonderful drawings  rendered in both
black-and-white and color. The result is a masterly overview that will guide the reader through
the co-evolutionary history of organisms and their tree hosts--
