Book First Edition
Trade Paperback. Condition: New. First Edition in Paperback. First edition in paperback. 8vo. Trade paperback, 396 pp. Based on anthropologist William Balée's ten years of ethnological and botanical research among the Tupi-Guarani-speaking Indians of eastern Amazonia, this book documents the ways in which the Ka'apor use, manage, name, and classify many hundreds of plant species found in their habitat, which he argues constitutes a domain of scientific inquiry in its own right. The substantive chapters explore the history of the Ka'apor and their present modes of land use, the Ka'apor's influence on the composition of fragile forests in their habitat, and Ka'apor forest management practices. Balée also discusses the nomenclature and classification of indigenous plants as well as the cognitive aspects of magical, medicinal, and poisonous plants. New.

The study of ecology is an attempt to understand the reciprocal relationships between the living and nonliving elements of the earth. For years however the discipline has either neglected the human element entirely or presumed that its effect on natural ecosystems is invariably negative. However social scientists in geography an anthropology have criticized efforts to address this human environment interaction as deterministic and mechanistic. Bridging the divide between social and natural sciences the contributors to this book use a more holistic perspective to explore the relationships between humans and their environment. Exploring short and long term local and global change eighteen specialists in anthropology geography history ethnobiology and related disciplines present new perspectives on historical ecology. The authors present a broad theoretical background of the material factors central to the field such as anthropogenic fire soils and pathogens. This knowledge applied to a series of regions is used to investigate landscape transformations over time in South America the Mississippi Delta the Great Basin Thailand and India. The contributors focus on traditional societies where lands are most at risk from the incursions of complex state level societies. The book lays the groundwork for a more meaningful understanding of humankind's interaction with its biosphere. Scholars and environmental policymakers alike will appreciate this new critical vocabulary for biocultural phenomena. 429 pp.

Book Print on Demand
Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book primarily examines human-animal and human-plant interactions in Asian forests (Southeast Asia and Japan) and inland waters (China). For comparison, cases from the Americas (whales in the Arctic, sea turtles in the Caribbean, and plants in the Amazon) and Central Asia are also included. The relationship between plants, animals, and humans in Asia is quite unique from a global perspective. For example, 'satoyama' in Japan means ecotone area, or the boundary between a village and a forest. There, as the number of inhabitants declines, bears, wild boars, and other animals increasingly ravage crops, sometimes attacking humans as well.By showing the regional nature of human-animal and human-plant interactions in Asia, this book provides for the first time a framework for understanding the world's animal and plant-human relationships. It is assumed that the relationships between humans and animals and plants during this period were diverse, including hunting, taming, semi-domestication, and full domestication. At the same time, for regions outside of Asia, the extent to which these diverse relationships were adapted and how diversity was formed is explained from the perspective of historical ecology.Customers can expect to derive perspectives on the coexistence of human-animal and plant-animal relationships from this book in the near future.The conservation of rare species, diverse habitats, and biodiversity is a central theme in considering the relationship between modern civilization and the global environment. In post-industrial Japan, one focus has been the protection of iconic animals such as storks, crested ibis, dugongs, and sea turtles, while damage to crops and humans by deer, wild boars, monkeys, bears, and other common animals has become an important social issue. How can the world's 7.7 billion-plus people live in harmony with other species We would like to get some hints on how to solve the problems we are facing. 328 pp. Englisch.
