In seinem Portrait "Tannen" erzählt Wilhelm Bode die überraschende Kulturgeschichte der Tanne, des vermeintlich bekanntesten Baums, und zeichnet die folgenreiche Verdrängung der Tannen aus unseren Bergmischwäldern nach: In der Romantik zum Weltenbaum überhöht und von der industriellen Forstwirtschaft durch die Fichte verdrängt, ist die Tanne heute zum Hoffnungsbaum geworden, denn sie erträgt trockene Sommer in ihrem natürlichen Mehrgenerationenhaus eines Laubmischwaldes gut.

Per quanto incredibile ci possa sembrare, le piante sono in grado di provare un'ampia gamma di emozioni. E come è stato recentemente dimostrato, sanno anche, con mezzi dai più straordinari ai più semplici, trasmettere quello che provano. Si difendono, attaccano, siglano alleanze, cacciano, costruiscono, trascinano, comunicano a distanza le loro paure, le loro sofferenze e le loro gioie. Ora è dimostrato: ci percepiscono, ci riconoscono, ci considerano, reagiscono alle nostre emozioni ed esprimono le loro.

Sebbene esista la convinzione che parlare alle piante ne favorisca la crescita, sembra tuttavia alquanto strano immaginare che le piante abbiano una vita mentale. Se però consideriamo che pensare non è altro che la capacità di recepire stimoli dall'ambiente, elaborarli e mettere in atto strategie per sopravvivere, allora possiamo ritenere che le piante abbiano una qualche forma di pensiero e intelligenza. L'autore ci introduce nel mondo delle piante e ne svela i segreti.
