Ethnobotany of the Caucasus: European Ethnobotany
Editat de Rainer W. Bussmannen Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 iul 2017
The content will be divided into sections covering countries (or groups of countries), based on plant diversity and not necessarily political or national boundaries. The Caucasus volume will have an Introduction (4,000-6,000 words); 50 200 plant monographs (10 to maximum 50 monographs per country) with each monograph having a length of ~1,500 words (with references), plus 2-4 photographs. To further define the content, the plant monographs will be divided into five major categories (food; medicine/cosmetic; veterinary; handicraft plants; and ritual/folkloric uses) and include notes. The number of the monographs in every category will be negotiated depending on the advances of the ethnobotanical research in each specific country, or group of countries. The main criteria for the inclusion of a given plant will be its cultural salience within a given country (assessed by the Volume Editor). References will be given at the end of the Introduction and each monograph.

Recenzii
“This is a well-produced book that will have a long shelf life as a source of information on ethnobotany of the Caucasus. It is rigorous enough to be used as a stand-alone reference. Some of the information within it may serve as signposts towards more detailed information in more specific texts. Being easy to read and presenting engaging portraits of the plants also makes it a candidate for recreational reading.” (Susanne Masters, Economic Botany, Vol. 72 (1), March, 2018)
