Description: "During a career that spans nearly fifty years, Mike Apsey has seen first-hand the complexities of the forest, in settings ranging from jungle villages and the global forest to corporate and government offices throughout the world. With the perspective of someone who has served on all sides of the issues, Apsey is in a unique position to offer timely recommendations for a system of forest governance and suggest a new approach to developing forest policy. What's All this Got to Do with the Price of 2x4s? is an insider's account that gives readers new background on the competing tensions of environmental, economic, social, and cultural values. Based on a lifetime of passion and professional experience, this memoir will be invaluable for anyone concerned about the future of the world's forest."--BOOK JACKET.
