Enjoy a conversation with British mycologist and author, Merlin Sheldrake with redwoods surrounding you!
Merlin Sheldrake will discuss his New York Times bestseller, Entangled Life: How Fungi Make our Worlds, Change our Minds, and Shape our Futures with UC Santa Cruz Associate Professor of History Benjamin Breen and the Deep Read community. They will explore the dependence of all life—human, plant, animal, fungal, and beyond—on fungal networks and how the resulting interconnections provoke us to reconsider our understanding of existence, identity, intelligence, and more.
