The global forest / Diana Beresford-Kroeger.
Scientist Diana Beresford-Kroeger explores the largely untapped ecological and pharmaceutical properties of trees: leaves that can comb the air of particulate pollution, fatty acids in the nuts of hickory and walnut trees that promote brain development, the compound in the water ash that helps prevent cancer, aerosols in pine trees that calm nerves. She also describes the complexity and beauty of forests, as well as the environmental dangers they face.
