Synopsis
Bamboo's amazing versatility, strength, workability, and beauty have given it a longer and more varied role in human culture than any other plant known to humankind. This book details the myriad ways in which this plant is now used and presents many options for its use in the future., Bamboo's amazing versatility, strength, and beauty have given it a larger role in human culture than any other plant. Both sustainable and plentiful, it has been used for millennia to make objects ranging from clothing and housing to more exotic luxuries like phonograph needles and children's toys, to name but a few. This acclaimed sourcebook—part history, part illustrated catalog, part cultivation guide—details the myriad uses of bamboo, along with an immense bounty of information and lore on how to grow, maintain, and harvest this extraordinary plant; how to use it in craft and construction projects, including floors, fences, papers, and play equipment; and bamboo's place in the literary, visual, and musical arts. An encyclopedic roster of more than 1,200 bamboo species is a book in itself, as is author David Farrelly's A-to-Z catalog of artifacts made from bamboo: acupuncture needles, blowguns, bridges, kites, ships, violins, windmills, and a thousand other things. Strong, flexible, and beautiful in both its natural and finished states, bamboo is an abundant resource that could beneficially replace many less sustainable materials currently in use, and continue to transform our culture in the process., Bamboo's amazing versatility, strength, and beauty have given it a larger role in human culture than any other plant.

A bounty of facts and lore, the profusely illustrated book includes: Bamboo cultivation - how to grow, maintain, and harvest bamboo Crafts and constructions using bamboo: floors, fences, papers, playgrounds (built by kids!), swings, and treehouses A "whole bamboo catalog" of tools and other artifacts made from bamboo - acupuncture needles, blowguns, bridges, kites, ships, violins, windmills, and a thousand other bamboo things The seemingly endless variety of shelter applications, including lamination, "plybamboo," reinforced concrete, and earthquake-zone construction Bamboo and the arts - a bamboo orchestra, the role of bamboo in the ancient "friendship ceremony," Sumi-e painting, and the depiction of the quivering leaf of the bamboo plant An astonishing compendium of bamboo science, covering more than 1,200 species from 4 inches to 100 feet high (one species has been known to grow 4 feet in 24 hours)

    AS SHOWN/DESCRIBED. IT IS A GREAT BOOK WITH COLORED INSTRUCTIONS WITHIN. I ONLY SUGGEST THAT ALL SELLERS OF BOOKS WOULD SHOW 2-3 PHOTOS OF ITS CONTENTS. IN DOING SO IT MAY HELP WITH ANY QUESTIONS BUYERS MIGHT HAVE. SECURED PKG, SUPER FAST FREE SHIPPING, SUPER FAST DELIVERY. BOUGHT ITEM, IMMEDIATELY PAID FOR IT, WAS SHIPPED AND DELIVERED WITHIN 24 HOURS VIA AMAZON! I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS OUTSTANDING SELLER! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!

    Item was exactly as described and packaged to protect it. Seller’s pricing was spot on and when I received it, it was in good condition. Seller actually messaged me when they shipped it (I really appreciated that). Overall I’m happy doing business with them!

    Very good customer service. Postage was very quick. Unfortunately the packaging wasn't enough to protect the item from a heavy blow and it arrived damaged, but zuber was responsive to the situation. Obviously I'd prefer if nothing had gone wrong, but the real test of customer service is how someone responds when things DO go wrong, and I've got nothing but praise for Katie's communication with me.
