Wild Plants of the Sierra Nevada offers a comprehensive inventory of the flora of the entire range, including descriptions of the plants; their traditional and contemporary uses as food, medicine, or for making tools and other products; and information about their habitat. In addition, the authors provide an introduction that describes the natural history and ecology of the Sierra Nevada in terms of plant communities and life zones, addressing the impact of such variables as climate, elevation, soil, and precipitation. They also outline the basic principles of ethnobotany, the role of plants in human nutrition and medicine, the classification of plants, and methods of collecting plant specimens and protecting rare species.
