The Heart of the Forest

The Heart of the Forest

Why Woods Matter

In an impassioned argument against the destruction of trees, such as Sheffield council’s felling of street trees for new development or forests cut down to make way for palm-oil plantations in Indonesia, John Miller’s book ranges across cultures and literatures to reveal our deep emotional engagement with trees. Drawing on the British Library collections, it offers a richly illustrated exploration of the meanings of woods and the depth of their significance.
