The relationship between nature and culture is a hot spot of social science, but trees are rare. From the earliest years, trees provide evacuation centers, fuel, food and tools that have played an important role in human life, but their role in symbolic expression is largely ignored. For example, trees are often used to express nationalistic emotions. The Germans widely use the image of trees and forests for the construction of the country, but the concept of "the center of the oak" was always the core of British identity concept. Common in the media are cruel trees and forests of passers-bys who have no doubt. In other cases, trees are used to represent paradise-like landscapes, symbolizing the idea of protecting and concentrating nature. This book proposes a new theoretical idea of treating trees as collective constituents of regional and cultural relations in relation to human relations. What happens when trees are tied to labor, technology, retail, and consumer systems? What is the moral aspect of these connections? The author discusses how trees influence and further define the concept of places, as well as ways in which certain places are culturally perceived. Working trees, related trees, wild trees and gathered or preserved trees are considered to be related to dynamic politics of conservation and development, which affects the value of trees in the modern world It is done. Built on the growing landscape of landscape research, this book provides a rich and detailed understanding of tree symbolism and practicality. For those interested in landscape, forestry, conservation and development anthropology, and those interested in natural social science, this is very important for reading.
In the early days of relationship between plants and plants I made a field of human geography. In 2002, Paul Klock and Owen Jones announced the tree culture instead of them: the place of trees and trees. Cloke and Jones are focusing on trees as a model of relationship between nature and society and considering non-human institutions, ethics and regional relationships as part of their research. Lesley Head and Jennifer Atchison reviewed the work in this field, including the social life of trees and trees, in article "Cultural Ecology: New Plant Geography of Humanity" in 2009 "Progress of Human Geography" Did. New research area: Human plant geography In this article we detail the current research between plant research and cultural geography research and ongoing research reasoning. However, scholars of plant research often do not integrate these studies into their research, they miss an important part of the interrelationship between trees and society.
The relationship between nature and culture is a hot spot of social science, but trees are rare. Trees provide shelter, fuel, food and utensils that have played an important role in human life since its early days, but their role in symbolic expression has been largely ignored.

Genesis tells us that God has placed two special trees in Eden, the original habitat of mankind, with all the other trees. Our first parents, Adam and Eve, were able to eat the tree of life freely, but they did not eat good and evil trees to prevent them from die (Genesis 2 : 9, 16-17).
