Book project - Ethnobotany of Mountain Regions

Editors-in-chief:
Prof. Dr. Rainer W. Bussmann
Dr. Narel Y. Paniagua Zambrana

 

The Ethnobotany of Mountain Regions book series (online and print) is organized into volumes, each covering a major mountainous region including the Northern Andes (Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia), Southern Andes (Patagonia), Central America, North America (Mexico) , North America (Rocky Mountains), Far Eastern Europe (North Caucasus, Urals, Turkey), Central Asia (Tien Shan, Altai), Himalayas, Africa, Southeast Asia, mountain regions of Brazil, Eastern Europe (Carpathians), North Africa and the Levant. The content focuses on the use of human plants in the various mountain systems.

 

Content is organized by Global Mountain macro-regions. Each mountainous region is divided into sections covering countries (or groups of countries) based on plant diversity and not necessarily political or national boundaries. Each volume covering a mountain macro-region is between 750 and 2000 pages.

 

Each mountain region is divided into sections covering countries or groups of countries. Therefore, the Mountain Region section would contain: An introduction to the region, introductions to major units of the region, and 200-500 plant monographs.
