Forests: From the Amazon Rainforest to the Siberian Taiga (Wonders of Our Planet)

A showcase of the diversity of forests and within forests. The photographs take the reader around the world and by the finish you've absorbed a lot of information via the captions. Some of the pictures are especially stunning and all are very well reproduced. As you would expect they vary from vistas to details, including fauna as well as flora. Because of the book's scope I saw several 'new to me' sights. Obviously different forests act differently, and replanted areas aren't the same as what they replace. Yet it's possible to make use of what a forest produces without destroying it as many mushroom hunters would tell you. An less widely reported than deforestation are efforts to bring back forests to places like Iceland. As someone who feels nurtured when in a woods this book is a joy.

What an beautiful book with amazing pictures ! I already have 2 others from this collection and its worth every penny !

Interesting and stunning photographs
