Review # 1 was written on 2014-07-11 00:00:00 Robert M Finch This book showed me the beauty, complexity and fragility of the canopy. I learnt more about nature, it's connections, and it's codependency, from this book, than all the other nature books combined. It made me fall madly in love with this planet. I describe this book as life changing for me. While I was always aware of pollution, wasting water, animals dying out and loss of habitat, this book showed me how everything in this environment was so dependant on all the other parts being there, and working. If the awe inspiring animals and plants in the canopy (or insert any other landscape here) struggle or die out - it is our fault for ignoring the science, putting ourselves first and for mucking around in spaces that don't belong to us. What I learned from this book has informed and effected every decision I have made since I read it in the early 80s. If I could only save one book from my library - this book is it.
