Research in recent years has increasingly shifted away from purely
academic research, and into applied aspects of the discipline,
including climate change research, conservation, and sustainable
development. It has by now widely been recognized that
"traditional" knowledge is always in flux and adapting to a quickly
changing environment. Trends of globalization, especially the
globalization of plant markets, have greatly influenced how plant
resources are managed nowadays. While ethnobotanical studies are
now available from many regions of the world, no comprehensive
encyclopedic series focusing on the worlds mountain regions is
available in the market. Scholars in plant sciences worldwide will
be interested in this website and its dynamic content. The field
(and thus the market) of ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology has
grown considerably in recent years. Student interest is on the
rise, attendance at professional conferences has grown steadily,
and the number of professionals calling themselves ethnobotanists
has increased significantly (the various societies, like the
Society for Economic Botany, the International Society of
Ethnopharmacology, the Society of Ethnobiology, and the
International Society for Ethnobiology currently have thousands of
members). Growth has been most robust in BRIC countries. This new
MRW on Ethnobotany of the Himalayas takes advantage of the
increasing international interest and scholarship in the field of
mountain research. It includes the best and latest research on a
full range of descriptive, methodological, theoretical, and applied
research on the most important plants in the Himalayas. Each
contribution is scientifically rigorous and contributes to the
overall field of study.
