Why is the world being destroyed? Isn't man the pinnacle of creation, the most highly developed living being on this planet? How is it possible that, against all sound judgment, we are destroying the Earth and, with it, our own livelihood? Peter Wohlleben offers answers that are as surprising as they are plausible and shows how we are subject to the same rules of the game as all other living things: the rules of our instincts. But we have the power to change our destiny. Amazing revelations about the secret nature of man!
