Description: WISDOM & WONDER IN THE WORLD OF PLANTS JANE GOODALL IS WORLD FAMOUS FOR HER WORK WITH CHIMPANZEES and for the attention she has brought to the urgent need for science-based conservation. But long before she began that ground-breaking work, even as a child growing up in the beautiful garden of her English home, Ms Goodall had a passion for the world of plants and nature. It was her haven, and it remains so to this day.In this important book - important because it reminds us of the profound relationship we all have with plants - the author takes us from verdant England deep inside tropical Africa to the forests of Gombe National Park in Tanzania. We learn again about our dependence on plants as food, medicine and spiritual nourishment as well. Ms Goodall describes the latest scientific achievements in the plant world - and it is impossible not to share her excitement at what the scientists are learning today.THIS BOOK IS IN FINE CONDITION, UNBLEMISHED and with clean, crisp and unmarked pages, a firm and square hardcover binding and an intact dust-jacket. There are two banks of color photographs and numerous black-and-white illustrations interspersed in the text. In addition to an index, there are detailed chapter notes. There are no signs of prior ownership and it looks as though you could be its first owner.
