En 1858 el Real Colegio de Farmacéuticos de Madrid (predecesor de la Real Academia de Farmacia), instó a los Colegios de farmacéuticos de toda España a elaborar un catálogo de plantas utilizadas en sus boticas, a traves de los inventarios de sus colegiados para poder confeccionar la Flora medicinal de España . Este proyecto que quedo inconcluso, genero un numero indeterminado de trabajos manuscritos que en la mayoria de las ocasiones quedaron en el olvido, aunque archivados en la biblioteca de la Real Academia. El 22 de mayo de 1942, Mas-Guindal, en sesion a los señores academicos, dicto una leccion en la que se repasaban los materiales aportados por los farmaceuticos, reviviendo, aunque solo fuera parcialmente y de forma simbolica el trabajo elaborado por ellos. Entre estos trabajos figuran entre otros los de los ilustres farmaceuticos-botanicos turolenses, Francisco Loscos y Jose Pardo. Tambien en la relacion de trabajos aparecen los del farmaceutico de Molina de Aragon, Pascual Bailon Hergueta con tres trabajos manuscritos, dos sobre la flora Molinesa y otro sobre la flora de los Baños de Segura. Este ultimo manuscrito esta fechado en 1860 y describe la flora encontrada, durante se cree dos meses de estancia del farmaceutico en el Balneario, en Segura de Baños, pueblo de la provincia de Teruel. (HERGUETA, 1858a; HERGUETA, 1858b; HERGUETA, 1858c; HERGUETA, 1860; MAS Y GUINDAL, 1958; GONZALEZ BUENO, 1986; GONZALEZ BUENO, 1997; GONZALEZ y RODRIGUEZ 1996)

What is a folk tale, but a tangled woodland of words, where anything could happen? Ever since the last ice melted, trees have been our constant companions. Trees have transformed us, protected us, inspired us and created bridges for us. They will continue to shape our lives as we walk into an uncertain future.The islands of Britain and Ireland hold a rich heritage of folk tales, history, knowledge and song about trees. It is a living heritage, changing all the time through the circling year as oak and rowan are joined by spruce and plane, and as old stories are reworked and new ones created.Following the wheel of the year, storyteller and ecologist Lisa Schneidau brings our trees alive through their stories and songs, whether they are rooted in rural magic or modern myth. Take a fresh look at the tree-folk you share your life with, and discover their stories.

The modern world views the forest merely as a backdrop for recreation, forgetting that for most of human history, it was our primary grocery store. As food prices rise and the quality of mass-produced produce declines, the ancient skill of foraging is experiencing a necessary renaissance. Natures Hidden Grocery Aisle bridges the gap between urban life and the wild bounty waiting just outside your door, offering a comprehensive roadmap for those who yearn to eat fresh, organic, and free food but are held back by valid concerns about safety.This guide dismantles the intimidation factor surrounding wild edibles by prioritizing safety above all else. Instead of overwhelming you with thousands of species, it focuses intensely on the "Foolproof 15," a curated selection of delicious plants and mushrooms that have no poisonous look-alikes, ensuring your first foray into the woods is a confident one. You will learn to distinguish a delectable treat from a dangerous toxin through high-definition identification guides and the rigorous application of the Universal Edibility Test.Beyond simple identification, the book dives deep into the ethics of sustainable harvesting to ensure the landscape remains fruitful for generations to come. It explores the surprisingly lush world of urban foraging, teaching you how to spot nutritious greens in city environments while navigating potential pollution zones. From spotting spring shoots to harvesting winter roots, this narrative guide transforms your nature walks into a treasure hunt, empowering you to reclaim your food independence and turn the outdoors into your personal pantry without fear.

The Tree That Gives Back is a luminous collection of nature essays that explores the quiet intelligence of the natural world and the moral lessons it offers through reciprocity. Using the humble serviceberry tree as both metaphor and guide, the author reveals how every living thinghuman, plant, soil, and skyis bound in a web of giving and receiving.At its heart, this book is a meditation on gratitude as a natural law. The serviceberry feeds birds and bears, shades the forest floor, and blossoms long before other trees wake from winter. Its rhythm becomes a model for human living: give when you can, rest when you must, and trust that generosity sustains more than survivalit sustains meaning.Through clear, poetic essays, The Tree That Gives Back moves from one small plant to the vast systems it represents. Readers walk alongside the author through forests, fields, and city gardens, where acts of exchange are happening everywherebetween fungi and roots, between wind and seed, between people and the planet. Science meets spirit as ecology becomes a language of relationship.Each essay is built around a simple question: What does the earth give us, and what do we owe in return? The answers unfold through vivid observation, ecological insight, and personal reflection. The author writes of harvesting wild fruit without greed, of the ethics of eating, and of how gratitude can be an act of resistance in a culture built on taking.

Em minha tese de doutorado, que culminou neste livro, o currículo é como uma planta e, enquanto tal, pode ser "rizomático". No entanto, há falhas de entendimento por parte de quem deve elaborar os programas curriculares, alem de variaveis como tempo habil para revisar os textos, burocracias internas para formaço de equipes, conflitos de ego, de hierarquia e ate disputas entre gestores, o que resulta, infelizmente, em curriculos que no so funcionais para as unidades de ensino, contribuindo para a repetiço da resistencia docente em materializa-los em sala e no apenas por lacunas no processo de formaço dos educadores.

The Purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) is a controversial plant, regarded both as a Friend and a Foe. In Europe, where the plant is native and commonly found in wetland landscapes, its beautiful purple flowers are admired both in nature and when introduced into gardens. However, in North America, where the plant was introduced by immigrants in the early 1800s, L. salicaria has become a pest, conquering vast areas and displacing native plants.The exceptional success of the newcomer in the New World is primarily attributed to its escape from natural enemies. In the original habitats, the purple loosestrife is controlled and kept in check by plant-eating insects, especially beetles. In America, the alien plant can flourish, and the resources spared from defence are invested in extra growth and reproduction. As a result, the purple loosestrife now occupies all the US states except Florida.Besides the escape of enemies, the purple loosestrife has merits of its own. Hybridization between plants from various origins results in new genomes, enhancing the vitality of the alien.The purple loosestrife tolerates harsh environmental conditions, including dryness and flooding. On the warming planet, the species is one of the beneficiaries of climate change.The newcomer is an undeniable competitive stress factor for native biota. However, the long-term ecological impacts of the purple loosestrife may be relatively minor. In several regions, it has become an established part of wetlands. The abundant riches the flowers provide are a priceless gift for pollinating insects, benefiting agriculture during dry seasons. The purple loosestrife plant is valuable in providing compounds used in medical preparations.Although the purple loosestrife is not an agricultural weed, due to its damage to natural biota, the plant is included in the list of the 100 most deleterious alien organisms in the world. Besides the Americas, the plant has now been established - and is considered a worrisome alien - in Africa and Oceania.

O Imbiry, também conhecido por lírio-do-brejo, desempenhou um papel significativo na história da cidade, conhecida como uma cidade sanitária no final do século XIX e início do século XX. Conhecido por suas propriedades medicinais e curativas, o Imbiri se revelou uma aliada poderosa na luta contra a TB. As folhas aromaticas e as raizes desta planta nativa tornaram-se ingredientes essenciais em remedios naturais e tratamentos alternativos, oferecendo conforto e alivio aos que sofriam. Enquanto a TB assolava o mundo, Campos do Jordo, emergiu como um oasis de cura e esperança. A sombra das arvores centenarias e ao som das aguas e corredeiras dos rios, os pacientes encontravam forças para enfrentar a doença e a comunidade se unia em solidariedade e compaixo. Foi durante esses anos sombrios que os terrenos montanhosos e as matas verdejantes se tornaram refugios terapeuticos para os enfermos em busca de alivio e recuperaço.
