Beschreibung
There has been growing academic interest in food plants. This is a subject that lies at the frontiers of knowledge of various areas, such as environmental sciences, nutrition, public health, and humanities. To date, however, we do not have a book bringing these multi-disciplinary perspectives to bear on this complex field.
This book presents the current state of knowledge on Brazilian food plants through a multidisciplinary approach, including an overview of food plants in Brazil, as well as comprehensive nutritional data. It compiles basic theories on the interrelationship between biodiversity and the security of food and nutrition, ethnobotanical knowledge of Brazilian food plants, as well as various methods of learning and teaching, including through social media, artificial intelligence, and through workshops.
