Bamboo has an unparalleled history; it is very old, and at the same time very new.
Bamboo plays a vital role in the survival of many animals and ecosystems as well as having unique characteristics that offer potential solutions to modern ecological dilemmas - it grows extremely quickly, for example, making it an easily renewable resource. With the advent of modern research and technologies, the use of bamboo has increased dramatically - it competes with hardwoods as home flooring and can be found in the skins of aircraft and concrete reinforcements.

This book draws on a vast array of sources to build a complete picture of bamboo in both history and our modern world.
