Around the World in 80 Plants

Jonathan Drori

Description

Around the World in 80 Plants is an inspirational and beautifully illustrated book that tells the stories of 80 plants from around the globe.

Jonathan Drori takes a trip across the globe, bringing to life the science of plants by revealing how their worlds are intricately entwined with our own history, culture and folklore. From the seemingly familiar tomato and dandelion to the eerie mandrake and Spanish ‘moss’ of Louisiana, each of these stories is full of surprises. Some have a troubling past, while others have ignited human creativity or enabled whole civilizations to flourish.
