Blending diverse genre elements, the book offers an innovative narrative structure to voice the fears and warnings of an apocalyptic end caused by the thoughtless destructions of nature. Interfusion of thrilling adventures in the forest, tales of romantic dalliances, passionate depiction of the splendors of nature and the fine display of the local milieu makes the otherwise serious theme of the book an irresistible read. The book poses an unswerving witness of the author of an era in the city of Guwahati and the foreboding dangers that lurks on its people. The ceaseless developments done at the costs of the forests, the hills and the wet-lands are turning us the helpless witness to the clashes of the forest, man and the city. Bringing within its purview the various ecological concerns combined with the callous, thoughtless actions of the political leaders, corrupt government official and the ignorance and carelessness of common people, the book traces all the nemeses that lead to the annihilation of the ecological balance. The emotional fervor, the personal appeal, the tiny special narratives within the bigger framework of the book, the swiping panorama of the city and the beckoning to a nostalgic past of a, bygone green era of the narrator gives the book its distinctive flavor.

Amsterdamse Bos, Bois de Boulognes, Epping Forest, Hong Kong’s country parks, Stanley Park: throughout history cities across the world have developed close relationships with nearby woodland areas. In some cases, cities have even developed – and in some cases are promoting – a distinct ‘forest identity’. This book introduces the rich heritage of these city forests as cultural landscapes, and shows that cities and forests can be mutually beneficial. Essential reading for students and researchers interested in urban sustainability and urban forestry, this book also has much wider appeal. For with city forests playing an increasingly important role in local government sustainability programs, it provides an important reference for those involved in urban planning and decision making, public affairs and administration, and even public health. From providers of livelihoods to healthy recreational environments, and from places of inspiration and learning to a source of conflict, the book presents examples of city forests from around the world. These cases clearly illustrate how the social and cultural development of towns and forests has often gone hand in hand. They also reveal how better understanding of city forests as distinct cultural and social phenomena can help to strengthen synergies both between cities and forests, and between urban society and nature.

Development interventions often generate contradictions around questions of who benefits from development and which communities are targeted for intervention. This book examines how the Baka, who live in Eastern Cameroon, assert forms of belonging in order to participate in development interventions, and how community life is shaped and reshaped through these interventions. Often referred to as ‘forest people’, the Baka have witnessed many recent development interventions that include competing and contradictory policies such as ‘civilize’, assimilate and integrate the Baka into ‘full citizenship’, conserve the forest and wildlife resources, and preserve indigenous cultures at the verge of extinction.
