Common Trees in Peat Swamp Forests of Peninsular Malaysia 
--- 
Ng Tian Peng & Shamsudin Ibrahim

The purpose of the book is not only to highlight the importance of peat swamp forests as a natural resource, but also to promote sustainable management for logging in these areas. The book describes the formation, characteristics and hydrology of these forests, forest management and threats to the ecosystem, but the major part of the book is devoted to the various species of commercial and non commercial trees to be found there. Each species is illustrated with several colour photographs, with a text description and information on ecology and distribution and uses, if any. Very Good Paperback. First Edition. 97 pages with a list of references and an index to families.
