Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a Victorian guide to the products of economic botany in the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, London. It showcases collections of everyday items and substances derived from plants, from food and construction materials to medicine and interesting curiosities. The author provid…es an in-depth insight into the practical applications of botanical science and its historical context, emphasising the remarkable diversity of uses humans have found for herbs, shrubs, and trees throughout history. Beyond highlighting the global reach of plant uses, with examples from Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas, the author also examines the broader themes of the relationship between humans and the plant kingdom, touching on topics of sustainability, cultivation, and the preservation of valuable timber and drug-producing species. This book is a unique and informative exploration of the vital role of plants in human life, past and present, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of botany, economic botany, and the myriad ways plants contribute to our daily existence.
