Book Description

World-renowned canopy biologist Nalini Nadkarni has climbed trees on four continents with scientists, students, artists, clergymen, musicians, activists, loggers, legislators, and Inuits, gathering diverse perspectives. In Between Earth and Sky, a rich tapestry of personal stories, information, art, and photography, she becomes our captivating guide to the leafy wilderness above our heads. Through her luminous narrative, we embark on a multifaceted exploration of trees that illuminates the profound connections we have with them, the dazzling array of goods and services they provide, and the powerful lessons they hold for us. Nadkarni describes trees' intricate root systems, their highly evolved and still not completely understood canopies, their role in commerce and medicine, their existence in city centers and in extreme habitats of mountaintops and deserts, and their important place in folklore and the arts. She explains tree fundamentals and considers the symbolic role they have assumed in culture and religion. In a book that reawakens our sense of wonder at the fascinating world of trees, we ultimately find entry to the entire natural world and rediscover our own place in it.

"God's Wild Herbs" takes us out of our cultivated gardens ~ into the wilds of forest, pasture, pond and meadow. This book is a companion volume to Dennis Ellingson's earlier book, "God's Healing Herbs," that has brought helpful information and inspiration to thousands of gardeners and health-conscious readers. Take this book out on the trail with you to forage, identify and appreciate the wild plants you see. Use the alphabetical listings and descriptions of wild herbs and edible plants. Then rest for a while under the shade of a tree or on a park bench and read one of the meditations that are sprinkled throughout the book. These readings are titled "Along the Path," relating thoughts about God and his word and his ways to the created things we see along the foraging path. Also included are recipes and uses (both external and internal) for the 121 herbs identified in the book. Each herb is accompanied by at least one photo. And lovely photos of walking paths in various regions of the country grace the pages and entice the reader to get out and go exploring "on the path." Written by a recognized herbalist and Christian minister, this unique book is easy to use, thoroughly researched, inspirational, and beautiful!
