Merlin Sheldrake is a biologist and a writer known for the phenomenal bestseller Entangled Life which was the winner of the Royal Society Science Book Prize 2021 and the Wainwright Prize 2021. Entangled Life was also featured as Radio 4's Book of the Week and selected as a Book of the Year in The Times, Daily Telegraph, Sunday Times, New Statesman and Time, among others.

Merlin joins us to celebrate the release of the illustrated edition - featuring over 100 spectacular full-colour images, showcasing this wondrous and wildly various lifeform as never before.

The more we learn about fungi, the less makes sense without them. They can change our minds, heal our bodies and even help us avoid environmental disaster; they are metabolic masters, earth-makers and key players in most of nature's processes. In Entangled Life, Merlin Sheldrake takes us on a mind-altering journey into their spectacular world, and reveals how these extraordinary organisms transform our understanding of our planet and life itself.

The smash-hit Sunday Times bestseller now illustrated with over 100 spectacular full-colour images, showcasing this wondrous and wildly various lifeform as never before
