An ever greater number of our contemporaries will reach a very much
greater age than their ancestors. Longevity is one of the most
fertile fields for paradoxes: it is clear that the same causes do
not produce the same effects at the age of ten and at the age of
one hundred! On the subject of longevity, the "recipe book" is far
from having been written. Nevertheless, the Fondation IPSEN has
chosen a few of these paradoxes to discuss and try and explain
them.
Readers will climb through the pages of this vivid photographic
book to explore the parts of a tree--and understand their
functions. In summer, the tree sunbathes and seethes with animal
life. With autumn comes the flowing sap that makes maple syrup for
pancakes. As the tree's leaves begin to fall, winter is coming on
and the tree is nearly dormant. Spectacular photographs and fun,
informative text not only answer questions about how trees work and
why seasons change but also make this book an invitation to observe
and enjoy nature and its many wonders.
