Book
Plants are so ubiquitous, such a common feature of the world around us,that we rarely stop to consider the profound impact they have on our everyday lives.We give flowers on special occasions,spend many dedicated hours nurturing gardens, use them for dyes and construction, and turn them into cosmetics and medicines. We are also entirely dependent on them for sustenance - even when we eat meat, the animals that provide it have been raised on plants.
