  table of contents: The People and Plants Initiative / Alan Hamilton -- People and Plants partners -- 1. Conservation and context: different times, different views. Historical context. Management myths and effective partnerships. Vegetation and change: spatial and time scales. Human influence: landscapes and species -- 2. Local inventories, values and quantities of harvested resources. Local priorities: vegetation types, resource categories and species. Choosing the right methods. Before starting: attitudes, time spans and cross-checking. Taxonomy with all your senses: the use of field characters. Potentials and pitfalls: combining skills in inventories.

Measuring diameter, height and bark thickness. Methods for ageing plants. Harvesting impacts -- 5. Opportunities and constraints on sustainable harvest: plant populations. Plant populations and practical constraints: selecting species. Bridging gaps in knowledge: life forms, plant architecture and reproductive strategies. Plant life forms. Costs and complexity: inventory, management and monitoring. Yields: supply versus demand. Population modelling using transition matrices -- 6. Landscapes and ecosystems: patterns, processes and plant use. Tools for the 'big picture': aerial photographs and satellite images. Distribution, degree of threat and disturbance. Local knowledge, landscapes and mapping -- 7. Conservation behaviour, boundaries and beliefs. Conservation and the ingredients for common property management.
