Useful Trees of Uganda, also available on iBooks.

This book is made for all people interested in trees, planting trees, enjoying trees. 
I can think off farmers, tree planters, woodlot managers, government agents, foresters, trainers, lectures and all people interested in doing something with trees and for trees, to sustain the environment, reduce the depletion of natural resources and managed sustainably woodlots, forest or plantations.
It provide information on indigenous trees as an alternative for trees who are promoted and massively planted today, without integration of important environment services only looking at short time economic benefits.

The choice of the species is inspired by their occurrence in Uganda, how common and widespread they are and if they have frequently been used traditionally for the prosed purposes.
