Duke, a 35-year economic botanist with the USDA and elsewhere, now retired, describes approximately 100 of the worlds most important species of nuts, from familiar edible nuts to a few of the oleochemical or chemurgic nuts. Arranged alphabetically by scientific name, each entry provides a fairly succinct summary of each nuts uses, folk medicine, chemistry, germplasm, distribution, ecology, cultivation, harvesting, yields and economics, energy, and biotic factors. An introduction discusses definitions, nuts economic and nutritional value, and other matters. Includes some b&w line drawings. Not all species included are "true" nuts. Annotation c.
