Not only does nature defy simplistic categorization, it is as ambivalent to humanity's attempt to anthropomorphize it. And in some ways, that is what ecologist Suzanne Simard attempts to reveal as she weaves the stories of her life into the tapestry of the "wood wide web." Challenging along the way, not only the prevailing notion of "brutal competition" that has long dominated how many orient their world views, but also how humanity engages with nature. And precisely because of her memoir's exquisite particularities, Simard offers a tenderly honest perspective of the incontrovertibly universal "is-ness" that is our interconnectedness.
