Ohhhh Whitefeather . . . . you'll never guess what I stumbled upon at the bookstore today - quite by accident as I was looking for Christmas gifts. . . .
A book titled (drumroll please . . . .) "THE SECRET LIFE OF PLANTS - a fascinating account of the physical, emotional, and spiritual relations between plants and man" by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird, authors of the "Secrets of the Soil" (which the bookstore did not have in stock or I'd have purchased that one, too).
It will probably be post-holidays before I can really dig in, but I'll keep you apprised!
The back cover has a paragraph by Richard M. Klein, Professor of Botany, University of Vermont that was taken from Smithsonian magazine that says:
"If I can't 'get inside a plant' or 'feel emanations' from a plant and don't know anyone else who can, that doesn't detract one whit from the possibility that some people can and do . . . . According to The SEcret Life of Plants, plants andmen do interrelate, with plants exhibiting empathetic and spiritual relationships and showing reactions interpreted as demonstrating physical-force connections with men. As my students say, 'hey, wow!'"
Cheers!
