A review by dreamybee
The Secret Life of Plants: A Fascinating Account of the Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Relations Between Plants and Man by Peter Tompkins, Christopher Bird

Did not finish book.

I don't remember exactly when I read this, and I didn't finish it, but again, here are some notes from my reading to give you an idea if it might be up your alley. It had some interesting ideas, but a lot of the "science" in it seemed pretty questionable.

p.40-Using plants to screen for terrorists-wouldn't that be better!

Book goes back and forth between scientific, reasonable exploration to woo-woo pretty quickly & extremely. IMO. Not that the two have to be exclusive, but I can see how all the woo-woo would scare people away. Case in point: Guy pointing tube w/ vegetable matter in the air and picking up signals--must be communications from space and, likely, a cry for help. Well, of course!
