Michael Pollan is a food journalist, bestselling author and a professor of journalism at the University of California at Berkeley. His other books include The Omnivore’s Dilemma and In Defense of Food.

The main point conveyed in this text: Our connection with plants is more complex than we realize. Plants depend on us as much as we depend on them: they utilize us to propagate their genes, while we utilize them for nourishment, aesthetics, and even authority. Do not be deceived by plants that may seem uninteresting and ineffectual – they might understand your desires better than you do. Have any comments?
