Title: Trees (New Naturalist 145)
Description: Collins 2022 496, col figs. . HB. NEW. Corner of one page slightly creased, otherwise as new.. A long-awaited volume in the New Naturalist series examining the trees of Britain. Trees are essential components to many of the landscapes of Britain and have been vital in determining the ecology of our planet as well as the development of human cultures and communities. Yet how much do we really understand about how they work? This comprehensive introduction to all aspects of tree biology and ecology presents the latest discoveries in this area. The wonders and mysteries of trees are explored throughout the book and questions such as why leaves turn spectacular colours in the autumn, how water reaches the top of the tallest trees, or why the study of genetics has caused so many name changes in trees are all brilliantly answered..
