...[T]here are few indeed except trained naturalists who realize
that any but a quite casual and superficial relation exists between
these woodland toadstools and the trees under which they appear, or
have carried their observations a stage further and noted the
regular coincidence of certain kinds with particular tree species.
The association between the toadstool-producing fungi of woodlands
and our common trees is only one of many unlikely ways in which
plants belonging to widely different groups are interrelated with
one another and with the mechanism of life as a whole. Because this
is so, and because there is a widespread and somewhat surprising
lack of curiosity about the jigsaw puzzle formed by the different
kinds of life that surround us in nature; about the interplay and
interdependence of their various vital activities and the pattern
formed when these are fitted together...it has seemed worth while
to write this little book. (From the Introduction)
