Ethnobotany of the Caucasus focuses on the ethnobotany of wild and cultivated plants in this macroregion. The book is divided into sections covering countries (or groups of countries), based on plant diversity and not political or national boundaries. This Major Reference Work begins with an introduction to the region, followed by discussions of each sub-region, and plant chapters for over 1000 plant species. To further define the content, each section is divided into five major categories—food, medicine and veterinary/handicraft/ritual/folkloric uses.
