Description and Table of Contents

Description

China's forest regions are vast and diverse -- 9.6 million square kilometers containing 30,000 species, including 2,800 tree species and 2,700 genera of seed plants. In this comprehensive book, S. D. Richardson details how China manages forest resources. Many of the lessons the Chinese have learned could work equally well in other developing countries.
