What to read after Edible Wild Plants of Vietnam?

A vast , invaluable body of knowledge on the use of wild plants remains among many traditional communities to the present day. In the present volume, a total of 130 species of wild plants, their characteristics, distribution, use and efficacy are described, accompanied by illustrations of each plant. This study thus carefully records the knowledge of wild plants by the indigenous peoples of Vietnam, and is a step toward our preservation of this important data for posterity. As many neighboring countries share similar flora, it is also hoped that this study will benefit not only Vietnamese, but also those in other Asian countries. This volume will be of interest to botanists, nutritionists and naturopathic healers as well as to the general reader.
