Since the beginning of humanity's existence, plants have provided
us with everything we need for our survival - they sustain us with
air to breathe, food to eat, materials to make clothes and shelter
with, and medicine to treat and prevent disease. Their beauty can
also enhance our mood and provide spiritual and emotional
nourishment. Western science has 'discovered' and named innumerable
plant species over the course of its colonial history. To many
Indigenous peoples, however, plants have been recognised for
centuries as sentient beings, imbued with spirit and agency to help
humanity. Publishing in partnership with the Royal Botanic Gardens
at Kew, The Ethnobotanical offers a unique and beautiful
perspective on plants and their roles in the lives of peoples from
across the planet.
