Was wir von der Natur, Wald und Wildkräuter übers Leben lernen können.

So stehen diese Wildkräuter nicht nur fürs kulinarische Verarbeiten oder als Hausmittel sondern, Nein, in dem Buch sind sie auch ein Sinnbild für ein erfülltes gesundes Leben.

Mit Mytting wird aus einem nostalgischen Gefühl eine Bewegung, eine sinnliche Erfahrung, eine Leidenschaft, die nicht nur den Praktiker im Wald, sondern auch den "Armchair Woodsman" zu Hause erfasst. Wussten Sie, dass der höchste Holzverbrauch aus Butan gemeldet wird – und nicht etwa aus Skandinavien oder Russland? Dass die Bäume für das beste Brennholz im Frühjahr gefällt werden? Dass es einen Unterschied macht, ob Holz "Borke oben" oder "Borke unten" gestapelt wird? Dass der Holzstapel Rückschlüsse auf den Charakter des Staplers zulässt? Aprikosenholz brennt anders als Mandelholz.

Self-confessed bad birdwatcher Simon Barnes thought he knew nothing about plants. He didn't object to them: trees are interesting, because birds perch in them; plants are useful as they create habitats and birds live in habitats. But while admiring the tenacity of some sea kale and yellow-horned poppy to thrive on an inhospitable shingle beach, he was struck by a truth - it all begins with plants. In this funny and inspiring book, Simon Barnes tells the story of a lifelong relationship with plants, and the realisation of the fact.

Trentasette milioni di anni fa, la rosa compare sulla terra. L'hanno rivelato i fossili ritrovati in Oregon e in Colorado confermandoci che in tempi preistorici crescevano specie diverse di rose, le stesse presenti ancora oggi nell'emisfero settentrionale. La storia del fiore, dalla sua genesi a tutto il Settecento, è un'introduzione al cuore del libro di Anna Peyron, che comincia con una data precisa: il 21 aprile 1799, quando Marie Joseph Rose Tascher de La Pagerie, nata in Martinica in una famiglia creola di coloni bianchi francesi, compra una tenuta circondata da un parco.
