Berger's "Understanding Forests"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This little book is a gem that should be on the shelf of every concerned citizen and activist who is working to save the world's disappearing forests.Understanding Forests provides a great introduction to forests and the threats to them, and what the average citizen can do to save forests. John Berger has a sure grasp of how forests function ecologically and the way forestry is done (mostly badly) nowadays. He has managed to boil these complex subjects down beautifully: Simple, readable, yet lyrical sentences capture the most important ideas and literature in the field. The writing flows smoothly from one idea to the next, never bogging down in excessive detail.I enjoyed every word and feel strongly in recommending the book to any reader who is interested in this crucial issue.
