    Well written, very readable, and accessible to the general reader, while summarising some serious scientific issues... lavishly illustrated... the quality of the photographs is very good... a book that will be very useful for students of economic botany in particular and as an introduction to forestry, arboriculture and conservation. —J. R. Barnett, Annals of Botany, July 2010 …aimed at the undergraduate level, although there is much in it for amateur naturalists, geographers and even something for gardeners… should be of interest to gardeners, as well as foresters and tree surgeons… covers this wide range of topics and approaches in an excellent easily readable way… a good introduction to forests and trees in the wild and tree and forest management… —John Goodier, Reference Reviews, July 2011
