Trees are one of the dominant features of our existence on earth and play a fundamental role in the environment. This book gives the reader an overview and understanding of trees. Subject areas covered include ecology and conservation, tree anatomy and evolution, pathology, silviculture, propagation, and surgery. The different chapters cover trees from various world habitats, from northern boreal and montane coniferous forests to tropical and subtropical rainforests. The book is fully illustrated throughout with the highest quality color photos and is invaluable to professionals and students in plant science, plant biology, ecology, and conservation and to those working in forestry and arboriculture.

Industry Reviews

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 20100701 ...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 20110701
