Fourteen case studies demonstrate that the people who live closest to the forest are likely to have the greatest vested interest in ensuring that the forest is used in a sustainable manner to provide long-term benefits to local people. The first section The Big Picture provides an overview of tropical forest ecology and the causes and consequences of deforestation, emphasizing the human dimension and an anthropological perspective. Paper edition (10319-0), $19.50. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
