Produktbeschreibung

This comprehensive book documents the current use, research, and policy concerns relating to harvesting non-timber forest products (NTFPs). It provides a state-of-the-art review of historical and contemporary wildcrafting, ongoing research on economically useful forest products, and sociopolitical and environmental considerations for NTFP management. The implications of harvesting NTFPs are usually considered in the context of the Third World, but this unique book offers an analysis of current conditions in North America and integrates the historical, social, ecological, and policy aspects of NTFP use.

Goldenseal, black cohosh, slippery elm, ginseng, Echinacea: these essential healing plants are often wildcrafted. But what are the implications when the primeval practice of gathering wild herbs, plants, fungi, leaves, and bark occurs in a post-industrial world? Non-Timber Forest Products: Medicinal Herbs, Fungi, Edible Fruits and Nuts, and Other Natural Products from the Forest provides a unique analysis of the laws, sociocultural factors, competing political and economic interests, and environmental issues related to wildcrafting. It is an essential resource for socially responsible herbalists.
