Trade Paperback. Zustand: New. First Edition in Paperback. First edition in paperback. 8vo. Trade paperback, 396 pp. Based on anthropologist William Balée's ten years of ethnological and botanical research among the Tupi-Guarani-speaking Indians of eastern Amazonia, this book documents the ways in which the Ka'apor use, manage, name, and classify many hundreds of plant species found in their habitat, which he argues constitutes a domain of scientific inquiry in its own right. The substantive chapters explore the history of the Ka'apor and their present modes of land use, the Ka'apor's influence on the composition of fragile forests in their habitat, and Ka'apor forest management practices. Balée also discusses the nomenclature and classification of indigenous plants as well as the cognitive aspects of magical, medicinal, and poisonous plants. New.

The study of ecology is an attempt to understand the reciprocal relationships between the living and nonliving elements of the earth. For years however the discipline has either neglected the human element entirely or presumed that its effect on natural ecosystems is invariably negative. However social scientists in geography an anthropology have criticized efforts to address this human environment interaction as deterministic and mechanistic. Bridging the divide between social and natural sciences the contributors to this book use a more holistic perspective to explore the relationships between humans and their environment. Exploring short and long term local and global change eighteen specialists in anthropology geography history ethnobiology and related disciplines present new perspectives on historical ecology. The authors present a broad theoretical background of the material factors central to the field such as anthropogenic fire soils and pathogens. This knowledge applied to a series of regions is used to investigate landscape transformations over time in South America the Mississippi Delta the Great Basin Thailand and India. The contributors focus on traditional societies where lands are most at risk from the incursions of complex state level societies. The book lays the groundwork for a more meaningful understanding of humankind's interaction with its biosphere. Scholars and environmental policymakers alike will appreciate this new critical vocabulary for biocultural phenomena. 429 pp.
