pickMore personal, but just got my first tattoo and have to acknowledge the book that renewed my love for mushrooms. Entangled Life has contributed so much to my love of science and fungi, and nonfiction in general.

pickI love to listen to intelligent people muse on the beginnings of life. This one is from a physicist‘s perspective and my mind is altered each time I listen to these types of audiobooks. Do I understand it all? Oh, my no! But it doesn‘t dampen my enthusiasm. And I love to learn about the processes scientists/biologists/etc undertake in this field of study.
pickIf you love reading and learning about nature/science, and especially if you care about the environment, this is a wonderful read. In fact, I think it‘s an important read for everyone. I got this one out of my curiosity for nature in general, and also for my childhood love of mushrooms (I always believed fairies used them for housing, bowls, cute hats, etc.). But I don‘t think I was fully prepared for the mystical ride I was about to embark on… ⬇️
“Metaphors and analogies, in turn, come laced with human stories and values, meaning that no discussion of scientific ideas—this one included—can be free of cultural bias.”
pickI orchestrated my read of this book to coincide with a trip to Galapagos. I also read Darwin's Voyage of the Beagle and Origin of Species beforehand. This all contributed to my enjoyment of this book.
The Beak of the Finch is focused on the Grants, a family of scientists studying Galapagos finches. Highlighting their work, Weiner illustrates visible evolution that is occurring around us right now, not centuries from now.
