Woodlands: Ecology, Management and Threats
£198.00
Woodlands: Ecology, Management and Threats brings together key authors and researchers to address issues around the understanding of treescapes, woodlands, and forests, and both recognition and protection. Critical issues are raised in terms of the lack of guidance on matters such as irreplaceable woodland heritage and associated biodiversity.

“This book successfully challenges many of the existing misinterpretations surrounding the existence and the management of our ancient trees, woodlands and landscapes, as well as proposes a much more knowledgeable and viable approach to retaining and improving these irreplaceable gems of our countries and our communities. This book is extremely well illustrated and is an absolute must for anyone who is even remotely interested or involved in anything to do with ancient trees and woodlands.” Dr. Alan Simson, Emeritus Professor of Landscape Architecture + Urban Forestry, Leeds Beckett University; Director / Secretary European Forum on Urban Forestry
