This splendidly illustrated book focuses on the botanical legacy of many parts of the former Ottoman Empire -- including present-day Turkey, the Levant, Egypt, the Balkans, and the Arabian Peninsula -- as seen and described by travellers both from within and from outside the region.

The Upper Rhine Valley (AVR) is borderland between the Italian regions of Tuscany and Emilia Romagna. The natural and cultural heritage based upon ethnobotanical knowledge in the AVR area has been studied, documented and analysed using semi-structured interviews. The information is presented through an ethnological and floristic catalogue, including both cultivated and wild species known to the local community. Although there is evidence of a great biocultural richness in the old oral tradition, important erosion phenomena threatening the conservation of ethnobotanical knowledge (immaterial culture) and associated plants (material culture) have been highlighted. The reasons behind the phenomena are partly due to the abandonment of agro-pastoral practices, as well as to the significant changes in the management of the territory and in the life forms.

"Ce guide est un ouvrage synthétique et pratique conçu pour une identification aisée de la flore de France et des pays limitrophes. Il comporte les espèces les plus communes, celles que l'on rencontre à chaque pas dans les plaines et collines, en montagne ou encore en région méditerranéenne. Soit 100 familles, 500 genres et 1000 espèces... ce qui est déjà beaucoup (1/5 de la flore française). L'ouvrage est hiérarchisé: on détermine la famille, avec l'étude du genre type illustré par une dissection florale, puis les différents genres, enfin les espèces. C'est un ouvrage scientifique associant pour la première fois : des clés illustrées, seul moyen d'aboutir à la solution exacte (nommer l'espèce), une illustration couleur de grande qualité pour chaque espèce (extraite de La Grande Flore en couleur de Gaston Bonnier), l'écologie de la plante (avec une carte de répartition pour les ligneux), etc. La nomenclature est à jour, mais tous les synonymes utilisés dans les anciennes flores sont cités. Le livre est doublé d'un petit manuel de biologie végétale riche en informations : pour chaque famille, des précisions morpho-anatomiques, biologiques, écologiques et les plantes importantes pour l'Homme..."
