Part 1 Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake Summary"Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures" by Merlin Sheldrake is an exploration of the fascinating and complex world of fungi, highlighting their vital role in ecosystems and their impact on life on Earth. Here are the key points and themes from the book:Fungi as Fundamental Organisms: Sheldrake emphasizes that fungi are not just decomposers; they are central to many ecological processes. They form symbiotic relationships with plants, animals, and other organisms, contributing to nutrient cycling and ecosystem health.Mycelium Networks: The book introduces readers to mycelium, the vast underground networks of fungal threads that connect plants and trees, often referred to as the "Wood Wide Web". These networks allow for communication and resource sharing among plants, demonstrating an intricate web of interdependence in nature.Interactions with Life: Sheldrake explores how fungi interact with various forms of life, including humans. He discusses how certain fungi can alter consciousness and perception, particularly through psychedelic experiences, suggesting that our relationship with fungi can influence our mental and emotional states.Fungus and Climate Change: The author examines the role of fungi in responding to and potentially mitigating climate change. Fungi play a crucial role in breaking down organic matter, sequestering carbon, and promoting soil health, which are essential in the fight against climatic shifts.Fungi in Medicine and Science: Sheldrake highlights how fungi have been pivotal in medical advancements, such as the discovery of penicillin and the development of various antibiotics. He also discusses current research exploring the use of fungi in bioremediation and other innovative environmental solutions.Fungi and the Unseen World: The book delves into the concept of mycology as a lens to view unseen processes in the world. Fungi challenge human perceptions of life and death, individuality and community, suggesting a more interconnected view of existence.Philosophical Reflections: Throughout the narrative, Sheldrake weaves philosophical reflections on the nature of life, equity in ecosystems, and the need for a holistic approach to environmental issues. He calls for a deeper appreciation of fungi's roles and, by extension, a reevaluation of our relations with nature.In essence, "Entangled Life" is a celebration of fungi, revealing their hidden complexities and urging readers to recognize their profound impact on our world, encouraging a shift in perspective towards appreciating interconnectedness in nature.Part 2 Entangled Life AuthorMerlin Sheldrake is a biologist and author known for his research on fungi and their ecological roles. His widely acclaimed book, "Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures," was released on August 20, 2020. The book explores the complex relationships between fungi and other life forms and examines their impact on ecosystems, human culture, and even our minds.In addition to "Entangled Life," Sheldrake has contributed to various scientific writings and has also co-authored works related to biology and ecology. However, "Entangled Life" stands out as his flagship book, garnering significant attention and praise for its engaging narrative and insightful exploration of mycology.As of October 2023, "Entangled Life" remains his most notable work due to its achievements, including:Winning several awards, such as the 2021 James Beard Foundation Book Award for Best Cookbook and other literary recognitions.Receiving acclaim for its accessibility and thought-provoking content, making complex scientific ideas comprehensible to a broad audience.As for editions, the initial hardcover edition is often regarded as the best due to its...

Some podcast apps may not display links from our show notes (see below) properly, so we have included a list of links at the end of this description. * A massively diverse group of organisms, fungi support and sustain nearly all living systems. Fungi throw our concepts of individuality, and even intelligence, into question. They can change our minds, heal our bodies, and even help us remediate environmental disasters. By examining fungi on their own terms, we are changing our understanding of how life works. * In this episode, Merlin Sheldrake, biologist and author of the bestselling book Entangled Life, is joined by CIIS professor of Ecology and Religion Elizabeth Allison for an illuminating conversation about the ways these extraordinary organisms, and our relationships with them, change our understanding of the planet on which we live, and the ways that we think, feel, and behave. * This episode was recorded during a live online event on May 5th, 2023. You can also watch it on the CIIS Public Programs YouTube channel. A transcript is available at ciispod.com.

Winding through questions of philosophy, science, and meaning making, this week's episode brings together vital thoughts on what it means to live an embodied life in an entangled world. Guest Merlin Sheldrake shares the motivations that drew him to study fungi and the complex ways this study has shaped his life and thought. As Merlin shares, “an account of life that doesn't include fungi is an account of a living world  that doesn't exist.” Our relationship with fungi is non-negotiable. Merlin invites listeners to pay attention to what this relationship means and how it shapes not only our lives, but the entanglement of life across the world. With this, Merlin also shares the ways fungal life offers a diversity of expressions and possibilities – offering up the perspective that the diversity and complexity of relationship and expression is what makes life fertile. Across the episode, Merlin and Ayana contemplate the history and meaning of science, and come to see life as a process and a relationship. The meaning we make does not come out of a vacuum, but rather out of relationship. Life itself, in its many forms, is improvisational. Understanding this, we are left with the provocation: How might we speak to the world, rather than about it?   Merlin is a biologist and author of Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds, and Shape Our Futures, a New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller, and winner of the Royal Society Book Prize and the Wainwright Prize. Merlin is a research associate of the Vrije University Amsterdam, and works with the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks and the Fungi Foundation. A keen brewer and fermenter, he is fascinated by the relationships that arise between humans and more-than-human organisms. (merlinsheldrake.com)Music by Matthewdavid.

They're not a plant or an animal — fungi are their very own kingdom of life. And their unique composition means they offer novel, often unbelievable, benefits to our health. Certain species of fungi are currently used to treat conditions ranging from cancer to depression. The love of mushrooms (or mycophilia) has grown in recent years. And at the heart of this movement is biologist Dr. Merlin Sheldrake, author of the bestseller Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds and Shape Our Futures. In today's episode of ZOE Science & Nutrition, Jonathan, Merlin, and ZOE Co-Founder Prof. Tim Spector ask: Why are mushrooms so special?If you want to uncover the right foods for your body, head to zoe.com/podcast, and get 10% off your personalized nutrition program.Download our FREE guide — Top 10 Tips to Live Healthier: https://zoe.com/freeguide Follow ZOE on Instagram.Timecodes:00:00 - Introduction 1:42 - Quickfire round3:04 - What are fungi?8:40 - The connection between fungi, plants & gut health14:10 - The human impact on fungi19:41 - Mushrooms and mental health 28:01 - Fungi as medicine35:34 - Why should we eat mushrooms40:39 - How to introduce more mushrooms into your diet46:56 - How often should you eat mushrooms51:17 - Summary56:01 - OutroMentioned in today's episode: Potential role of ergothioneine rich mushroom as anti-aging candidate through elimination of neuronal senescent cells from Brain ResearchMedicinal mushrooms in adjuvant cancer therapies: An approach to anticancer effects and presumed mechanisms of action from NutrireImmunomodulatory effect of mushrooms and their bioactive compounds in cancer: A comprehensive review from Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy Episode transcripts are available here.Is there a nutrition topic you'd like us to explore?

Psst! Mushroom leather is not actually made from mushrooms – but it is fabulous! Much Like our guest this week. Merlin Sheldrake is the biologist and author of the extraordinary book, Entangled Life, How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures. You might not give fungi much thought, but mycelium networks are working their wonders all around us. And we need them! Together with bacteria, fungi are responsible for breaking down organic matter and releasing carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus into the soil and atmosphere. Without fungi, nothing would decay. We partner up with fungi to make some of the foods and drinks we love the most (hello, bread and beer). And fungi is also causing quite the buzz in fashion, thanks to the invention of new leather-like materials and plastic alternatives derived from mycelium. Forward-thinking designers from Iris Van Herpen to Stella McCartney have been inspired by fungi's wonderful properties and intriguing life.Prepare to be wowed by this enlightening conversation that might just change the way you think about everything around you. Essential listening this Earth Day! Value the show? Please help us spread the word by sharing it with a friend, and following, rating and reviewing in your fave podcast app. Got feedback?

From the SAND Archives we present a conversation between SAND co-founder Maurizio Benazzo and biologist and writer Merlin Sheldrake from SAND's Wisdom in Times of Crisis Series (2020). In this talk they discuss Merlin's book Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures. Merlin Sheldrake is a biologist, writer, and speaker with a background in plant sciences, microbiology, ecology, and the history and philosophy of science. He received a Ph.D. in tropical ecology from Cambridge University for his work on underground fungal networks in tropical forests in Panama, where he was a predoctoral research fellow of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. He is a research associate of the Vrije University Amsterdam, works with the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks (SPUN), and sits on the advisory board of the Fungi Foundation. Merlin's research ranges from fungal biology, to the history of Amazonian ethnobotany, to the relationship between sound and form in resonant systems. A keen brewer and fermenter, he is fascinated by the relationships that arise between humans and more-than-human organisms. He is a musician and performs on the piano and accordion.

We firmly believe that this time of year should be all about slowing down, enjoying quality time with friends and family, and of course enjoying some time outdoors (weather permitting). So, as the holiday season approaches, we're back with another roundup of biophilic books to curl up with on those cold, cozy nights or give as gifts to the nature lovers in your life. Themes include brain health, climate change, fungi, and even the intersection of botany and booze. Show NotesThe Awakened Brain: The New Science of Spirituality and Our Quest for an Inspired Life by Lisa Miller, PhDThe Carbon Almanac: It's Not Too Late, edited by The Carbon Almanac Network and Seth GodinThe Body Keeps The Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel Van Der KolkEntangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds, & Shape Our Futures by Merlin SheldrakeThe Comfort Crisis: Embrace Discomfort to Reclaim Your Wild, Happy, Healthy Self by Michael EasterBewilderment by Richard PowersThe Drunken Botanist: The Plants That Create The World's Great Drinks by Amy StewartKey Words: nature, holiday, reading list, nature books, biophilia, biophilic, biophilic design, climate change, climate, climate crisis, mindfulness, wellness, carbon footprint, carbon, fungi, mushrooms, bewilderment, richard powers, the overstory, botany, cocktails, holiday cocktails
