Rezension

From the reviews:

“The book is the exploration of the cultural, biological, spiritual, economic, and emotional components of the forested landscape of northern Europe from the earliest records of interactions between humans and forests to the present day. … This volume should certainly be considered as part of the literature of landscape ecology, as it considers throughout the interactions between humans, forests, and forested landscapes. … For those with a humanistic or philosophical bent, it is likely a worthwhile read … .” (Ralph E. J. Boerner, Landscape Ecology, Vol. 27, 2012)
