Understanding the biophysical intricacies of our life-support systems just might.
Eminently readable, this important book shows that Forests are far more complicated than most of us might think, which means simplistic policies will not save them.
Comparing Forests in the Pacific Northwestern United States and Southeastern mainland of Australia, the authors show how easily observable species Trees and mammals are part of a complicated infrastructure that includes fungi, lichens, and organisms invisible to the naked eye, such as microbes.
