""Love Them to Death provides a remarkable shift in the 'traditional' perspective on invasive species. While we have been brought up to consider invasive plants as foes, this book makes a powerful case for shifting the paradigmatic landscape of invasive species, by providing a series of well-written and researched chapters on the potential utilitarian value that they can provide. People who eat such plants are termed invasivores, and the book provides examples of many other types of uses—building materials, medicines, biomass, fodder, and in artistry—based on species that have been at best ignored and at worst considered our enemies. Congratulations to the editor and chapter authors who have reshaped our thinking and understanding of this complex but fascinating topic."" * Michael J. Balick, PhD, The New York Botanical Garden * “This book is more than a compendium on wild invasive plants, it’s a great introduction for communities to explore the weeds around them for use in everything from food to structures.” * Tama Matsuoka Wong, wild food purveyor and author of Into the Weeds: How to Garden Like a Forager *
