Lingkup Pembahasan:
Buku ini mengemukakan bukti-bukti studi botani yang dilakukan tentang adat orang terutama masyarakat hujan tropis di Aborigin. Buku ini juga mengemukakan tentang konservasi dan perlindungan hutan hujan di North Queensland, Pertempuran sengit untuk melestarikan Hutan hujan Australia atas dan ke bawah pantai timur dan di selatan-barat Tasmania telah banyak mendapat perhatian internasional.
Dalam bab terakhir, editor Nigel Stork dan Steve Turton bertanya apakah ada pelajaran dari Australia Tropics yang dapat diterapkan di tempat lain. Hal ini penting dalam mengejar keberlanjutan di mana saja untuk melibatkan semua pemangku kepentingan dalam perdebatan tentang cara hutan hujan dapat dikelola, untuk membuat sciencebased keputusan dan bekerja di seluruh disiplin ilmu dan ekosistem.
Di samping itu dikemukakan pula cara-cara di mana lanskap yang dikelola langsung mempengaruhi kesehatan saluran air, muara, lahan basah, terumbu karang dan lautan. Buku ini mengemukakan sesuatu yang unik dan komprehensif karena itu patut dicontoh. Pendekatan holistik untuk ilmu manajemen landscape berkelanjutan, dan merupakan kontribusi yang berharga yang tentu akan menarik minat seluruh dunia.
