Useful Plants from the Karst to Kvarner: A Guide to Identifying Wild Plants with an Emphasis on their Usefulness.The book deals with over 150 different species of useful plants from the Karst region, Istria and the outskirts of Kvarner (Slovenia and Croatia). The introduction explains how we connected the botany and prehistory of the forts (castles) in this area: in prehistory, man was a hunter and gatherer, and it has remained so to this day. Edible, medicinal, spicy, fragrant, and other useful plants (as material for tools or ritual purpose) have accompanied humans from generation to generation. In the "Kaštelir" project, we researched this knowledge, and summarized it and presented in two-pages per plant species of  botanical descriptions, the method of harvesting, preparation and use of wild plants. So we showed 154 wild plant species, each with three to four originally taken photographs. The book also contains a brief presentation of plant morphology, a floristic and, above all, vegetation description of the entire area and a code of wild plant harvesting. The book - a guide to useful wild plants - is intended for a wider circle of readers who are interested in nature and life with it.
