Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

Book excerpt: "To ease identification, the book is organized by plant area affected (e.g. foliage, flowers, stems) and within that by taxa. Close to a third of species are primarily leaf chewers, with about the same number of sap suckers. Multiple photos of various life stages and characteristic plant symptoms are included for key species. The text on the facing page, provides basic information on host plants, typical damage caused to plants, distribution, life history, habits, and, where necessary, how to keep "pests" in check - in short the essentials to better understanding, appreciating, and tolerating these creatures. Whether managing, studying, or simply observing insects, identification is the first step - and this book is the key. With it in hand, the marvelous microcosm right outside the house finally comes-fully into view."--BOOK JACKET.
