O último caimbé e outros cordéis científicos

The present material enchants and teaches us as we approach cordel culture and scientific knowledge. It is especially relevant for those who want to engage in the arduous, but very pleasurable and necessary, task of mitigating the so-called Botanical Blindness. Such a concept refers to people's lack of ability to perceive plants in their own environment, generating an inability to recognize the importance of plants to the biosphere and to humans, the inability to appreciate the beauty and peculiar characteristics of plants and mistaken vision of plants as inferior to animals, and can therefore be neglected. However, it is impossible to maintain the condition of botanical blindness after being involved with the content of the beautiful strings presented here. The reader will have a very pleasant reading and will expand his knowledge and environmental perception, especially in relation to plant elements!
