We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Plants and People: Choices and Diversity through Time" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This first monograph in the EARTH: The Dynamics of Non-Industrial Agriculture: 8,000 years of Resilience and Innovation series, approaches the great variety of agricultural practices in human terms. It focuses on the relationship between plants and people, the complexity of agricultural processes and their organisation within particular communities and societies. Collaborative European research among archaeologists, archaeobotanists, ethnographers, historians and agronomists using a broad analytical scale of investigation seeks to establish new common ground for integrating different approaches. By means of interdisciplinary examples, this book showcases the relationship between people and plants across wide ranging and diverse spatial and temporal milieus, including crop diversity, the use of wild foodstuffs, social context, status and choices of food plants.

We would like to dedicate this volume to

Dr Irmeli Vuorela

a much appreciated member of the Steering Committee of the EARTH Programme, who passed away in 2012 at the age of 74 after holding positions at the University of Helsinki, then the Geological Survey of Finland. Irmeli, whose expertise was in using pollen, charcoal and phytolith analysis to reconstruct human-plant relations, in particular for early Finnish agriculture through to the development of urban settlements, advised the programme with her characteristic humour and wisdom, and was supportive to research comprising this book.
