  • La vita segreta delle piante è un libro di Peter Tompkins e Christopher Bird sulle loro ricerche nel mondo dei vegetali, riguardo alla possibilità che le piante non siano soltanto organismi passivi simili ad automi, sottomessi alle forze ambientali, bensì che abbiano la capacità di comunicare, di percepire gli eventi, di memorizzarli, e persino di provare emozioni. L'idea del libro nacque a seguito degli esperimenti di un operatore americano di polizia sulle reazioni elettromagnetiche di una pianta registrate da una macchina della verità. (it)
  • La Vie secrète des plantes (titre original : The Secret Life of Plants) est un livre des journalistes Peter Tompkins et Christopher Bird publié en 1975 qui promeut l'idée, entre autres, que les plantes seraient non seulement capables de perception physiologique mais aussi de , c'est-à-dire de douleur, d'empathie et même de perception extrasensorielle. Le livre se base pour cela surtout sur les travaux de Cleve Backster lequel a étudié les réponses des plantes à l'aide d'un détecteur de mensonge. Ces travaux ont toutefois été réfutés par une publication scientifique et sont généralement considérés comme de la pseudo-science. Le livre contient par ailleurs un résumé de la théorie de la métamorphose des plantes de Johann Goethe. (fr)
