Excerpt from Palm Trees of the Amazon and Their Uses The materials for this work were collected during my travels on the Amazon and its tributaries from 1848 to 1862. Though principally occupied with the varied and interesting animal productions of the country I yet found time to examine and admire the wonders of vegetable life which everywhere abounded. In the vast forests of the Amazon valley tropical vegetation is to be seen in all its luxuriance. Huge trees with buttressed stems tangled climbers of fantastic forms and strange parasitical plants everywhere meet the admiring gaze of the naturalist fresh from the meadows and heaths of Europe.

Winner of the Society for Economic Botany's Mary W. Klinger Book Award. Cultural Forests of the Amazon is a comprehensive and diverse account of how indigenous people transformed landscapes and managed resources in the most extensive region of tropical forests in the world. Until recently, most scholars and scientists, as well as the general public, thought indigenous people had a minimal impact on Amazon forests, once considered to be total wildernesses. William Balée’s research, conducted over a span of three decades, shows a more complicated truth. In Cultural Forests of the Amazon, he argues that indigenous people, past and present, have time and time again profoundly transformed nature into culture. Moreover, they have done so using their traditional knowledge and technology developed over thousands of years. Balée demonstrates the inestimable value of indigenous knowledge in providing guideposts for a potentially less destructive future for environments and biota in the Amazon. He shows that we can no longer think about species and landscape diversity in any tropical forest without taking into account the intricacies of human history and the impact of all forms of knowledge and technology. Balée describes the development of his historical ecology approach in Amazonia, along with important material on little-known forest dwellers and their habitats, current thinking in Amazonian historical ecology, and a narrative of his own dialogue with the Amazon and its people.
