After the Trees : Living on the Transamazon Highway

Editorial Reviews
Review
Annals of the Association of American Geographers : A precise, readable, and humanistic treatment of life after the trees in Amazonia. . . . After the Trees is a very good introduction to life on the Transamazon highway. Its concepts are easily imparted; it communicates clearly and concisely in a jargon-free style; and it engages the reader effectively. . . . It is a useful addition to the discussion on tropical deforestation and human-environment interactions.
Economic Botany : This book should be read by all interested in Amazonian biology and people. It contains many lessons for those who propose to 'develop' Amazonia for sustainable economic gain.
