An important prerequisite for successful conservation is a good
understanding of what we seek to conserve. Nowhere is this more the
case than in the fight to protect plant biodiversity, which is
threatened by human activity in many regions worldwide. This book
is written in the belief that tools that enable more people to
understand biodiversity can not only aid protection efforts but
also contribute to rural livelihoods. Among the most important of
those tools is the field guide.Plant Identification provides
potential authors of field guides with practical advice about all
aspects of producing user-friendly guides which help to identify
plants for the purposes of conservation, sustainable use,
participatory monitoring or greater appreciation of biodiversity.
The book draws on both scientific and participatory processes,
supported by the experience of contributors from across the
tropics. It presents a core process for producing a field guide,
setting out key steps, options and techniques available to the
authors of a guide and, through illustration, helps authors choose
methods and media appropriate to their context.
