Seller's Description:
New. Book. 8vo. First edition in paperback. 8vo. Trade paperback, 396 pp. Based on anthropologist William Balée's ten years of ethnological and botanical research among the Tupi-Guarani-speaking Indians of eastern Amazonia, this book documents the ways in which the Ka'apor use, manage, name, and classify many hundreds of plant species found in their habitat, which he argues constitutes a domain of scientific inquiry in its own right. The substantive chapters explore the history of the Ka'apor and their present modes of land use, the Ka'apor's influence on the composition of fragile forests in their habitat, and Ka'apor forest management practices. Balée also discusses the nomenclature and classification of indigenous plants as well as the cognitive aspects of magical, medicinal, and poisonous plants. New.
