Description
A Cultural History of Plants, edited by Annette Giesecke & David Mabberley, is a most impressive collection of plants-and-people interactions from the beginnings of agriculture to the present day. I’d encourage anybody interested in the connections and interconnections between plants and people to give it a go.
