Description
Trees have played countless roles in human history - hopeful symbols of freedom, pioneering space travellers, keepers of ancient history and accessories to murder. Neurobiologist and philosopher Stefano Mancuso brings his signature charm and eye for detail to tell eight stories of trees that have rooted themselves in human history - from the red spruces that were made into Stradivarius' violins to the wooden ladder that solved 'The Crime of the Century' - and helped us survive and thrive.
