Ecological Forest Use Will Save the Forests and Jobs

The book is a valuable guide to how humans can live, work, and play in forest ecosystems in a way that does not destroy forests. The authors have compiled a wide range of articles most of which were originally published by the Ecoforestry Institute in their Journal of Ecoforestry. The articles lay the philosophical base upon which ecoforestry is premised. Ecological forestry seems to be the solution to many of the environmental problems seen in forests and forestry today, a way to resolve many of the vexing issues of forestry. This book is a must read for all forest activists, foresters, academics, and people concerned with humans relationships with forests and nature.
