History and Future of Plants, Planet and PeopleTowards a New Ecologically Sustainable Age in Peoples Relationships With Plants\nAuthor(s): Alan Hamilton, Pei Shengji\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: CABI Publishing, United Kingdom\nImprint: CABI Publishing\nISBN-13: 9781789248920, 978-1789248920\nSynopsis\nThis fascinating book presents the experiences and pooled knowledge of two very different conservation scientists; Pei Shengji from Sichuan, China and Alan Hamilton from London, UK. They have been drawn together over many years through working on some of the same conservation projects and have discovered that they overlap in their ideas about the sorts of work that needs to be done and how it can best be carried out. The book describes some of their own experiences, set within the contexts of their varied careers and the development of their thinking. Plant conservation is crucial to the preservation of natural ecosystems, but conventional approaches have met with only limited success.
