Amazing nonfiction book combining the worlds of philosophy and science

"Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change our Minds, Shape Our Futures" by Merlin Sheldrake, and "The Secret Life of Fungi" by Aliya Whiteley. I need to share these books. Zombie Fungus? Mind blowing. You're also telling me the intelligence of slime mould was used to optimise transportation networks, specifically the greater Tokyo area's railway system? Unreal. Nature goes crazy
(the picture is of a zombie fungus bursting out of a fly by Roberto García Roa)

this book literally changed my life and completely upended way i think about consciousness. octopus intelligence is the closest thing we have (and probably ever will have) to studying alien minds and this man makes the absolute most of it.
bare fascinating especially if you already like biology shit, and if you don't, trust me this will change that.

found this absolutely wild book at Half Price Books in Dallas and it’s basically just a theory of everything written by an SMU professor in the 70s. for some reason it’s bound in a 16:9 ratio, and it’s oddly long, but it’s mostly pictures and diagrams outlining how this guy connects the bible and science in a lot of weird ways which I definitely don’t agree with but are sorta fun to read about. I lovingly refer to it as my tome.
