Historical Ethnobiology presents a unique approach to analyzing
human-nature interactions, using theoretical and methodological
aspects to examine historical scientific knowledge. This book
disseminates the notion that past local narratives of biodiversity
influence the determination of both historical and modern
scientific decisions. Beginning with a brief history of
ethnobiology's development, this book delves into conceptual
models, historical knowledge areas, and the theoretical matrix of
ethnobiology. This book also focuses on the importance of memory
including topics of memory production by human in different epochs
and how individual memory records contribute to social history and
the understanding of the past effects of human interaction with
nature. Looking ahead, it discusses the importance of records such
as these for determining future mankind's relationships with nature
to preserve biodiversity and ensure conservation. Historical
Ethnobiology is the first book to focus on past human-nature
interactions and their interpretations in today's scientific
culture. This book is an excellent resource for students and
researchers in biology, ethnobiology, and anthropology.
